I'm thinking they won't get Gaudreau to sign a 8 year deal. 6 years will take him to 29.
Monahan I could see signing an 8 year deal, which would increase his cap hit a bit in order to buy a couple more UFA years.
Gaudreau - 6 years / $6.75 million per (Losing those two years lowers cap number from Tarasenko comparable)
Monahan - 8 years / $6.75 million per (Gaining those two years increases cap number from Barkov comparable)
Aligns with "Gio Cap" (Don't know if this is really a thing, just speculating)

I feel like Treliving can get them for 5.75 - 6.5. Would definitely be a good idea staggering contract renewal years so that you don't have to re-up your entire core at once.
