No doubt. I'd much rather have Barkov going forward, even without considering his awesome contract. He's a monster. But he's only had one good season, Monahan's had two, thus the "shown more" comment.
My earlier guess for Monahan's contract was 6.25x7, but after hearing this news, I'm expecting a 6.6x8. Maybe 6.75, then hopefully everyone gets the Gio cap.
