Unless one of the big 4; Barkov, Jones, Mackinnon or Droin magically drop to the 6th spot the Flames need to go for Monahan. He fits everything we are looking for as a future core player. He might not have the offense to be a top 20 player in the league but he has the leadership, character and 2 way game to make the team better down the road. The Flames have Baerschi, Gaueadrea as the high end skilled offensive guys. What they need is a big body who can play the hard minutes plus still be offensive.
