CGY's Sean Monahan FOR either MTL's:

1) Jonathan Drouin
2) Evgeni Dadonov or
3) David Savard + Joel Armia

Maybe a 3rd Team gets involved to take on salary for CGY in exchange for a Pick(s)

Flames then Trade Kylington and/or Valimaki for Picks/Prospects to clear the remaining Cap Space needed, something like:

Valimaki for BUF's Brett Murray
Kylington for a mid-1st Round Pick/Prospect

I find it funny how all you Flames fans were saying you’d get value for Monahan. As of now, it looks like Monahan + 1st for Future Considerations.

I normally don’t reply to your posts, but you’re not getting an asset back for a a guy who is leading the league in serious hip surgeries.

Furthermore, why would CGY want an asset back? The whole point is to dump a bad contract, not replace it with another bad one.

CGY has a good thing going without adding any of these guys…with a 3rd team involved, or a 4th, or a 5th…

Enjoy the day, is this is a great day for CGY fans. Treliving has two firm hands on the steering wheel?.

Hey HOCKEY DAD, I’ve got some good buds who are CGY fans, and most are pretty typical of most fan bases. There’s a couple here who are pretty out there, but most are just good ol’ Canadian hockey fans? You get those with any fan base. Cheers man?.

In all fairness I’m pretty sure we said we could get Val if we were to retain 50% on Monahan (or Lucic for that matter) but the situation changed when we signed Kadri, so yes, it makes sense that we had to pay to have a Team take his full Cap Hit on

The reason I proposed taking bad contracts back was because MTL doesn’t have the Cap Space to take Monahan either, but I guess that’s their problem now and have been compensated to deal with it

Just thought French Guys like Drouin or Savard might be a good fit for Huberdeau or MTL would prefer to open up a spot for their young guys so might dump Dadonov or Armia who hasn’t played Great in MTL lately but has played well for Finland recently so maybe Tre would take the chance with him at 3RW

In any event, I was wrong and am Happy and Ginet k admit that. Thought we’d only need to come up with a few more million so would do that by dumping Kylington & Valimaki or Lucic, but this happened and that’s the cost to make room for the 2C we desperately needed. Kadri will help replace the edge we lost in the Top-6 from moving Tkachuk

Kudos and Much Respect to @Chickenfoot, you called it and deserve the credit ?‍♂️

Should be interesting to see how Monahan rebounds. He could do well and might surprise some ppl with MTL this year.
