An unlikely trade I would like to see happen would be around Monahan(with $1.375M retained) for Point. That way the lightning, who are in a cup crunch get Monahan at $5M for 3 seasons. It would be a sweet deal for the lightning. Meanwhile the Flames get point at around $8M(6.75M plus the retained salary) for 2 seasons, plus another RFA season.

I am actually not sure which team is better off from such a deal, and which will need to add. As I think Monahan could be a PPG center as a part of the lightning. I am also not sure, how much better Point would actually be in Calgary, as he benefits quite a bit from having Stamkos as a huge threat.
