Lindholm and Gaudreau for Seguin would be that much more tempting.
If Monahan would have been gone at #6 would have the flames made that trade?

There is that possibility. It was clear the Flames targeted Monahan from the draft combine on. They got 3 of the 4 players they brought in.
Even after the draft they were rumored to be a front runner for Seguin. If that is the case it is clear Boston covets Gaudreau which is not surprising
