Monahan+Johnny for Aho+a draft pick. Use the savings to sign Toffoli. Pass the C to Tkachuk. And now you have a team full of two-way players. That's the new identity of the team - no other team would have so many players willing to play a full 200ft game:

Tkachuk Aho Toffoli
Mangiapane Backlund Lindholm
Dube Bennett Ryan
Lucic Janko Robinson

Are you getting a maximum return for Johnny and Monahan? Sort of - maybe not equal talent, but you're adding a piece that will change the culture in the room and cement a core group to hardworking two-way players. To me, that's worth "losing" a trade for.
