I would trade Monahan plus for another top 6 centre and keep Gaudreau.

Imagine these 2 lines:

Gaudreau-Bennett-Hall (the 2 elite wingers make up for the lower end centre, and who knows maybe this jump starts Bennett)

Tkachuk-New Centre-Lindholm.

Or you can put Lindholm at centre and do this.

Hall-Lindholm-Gaudreau

Tkachuk-Backlund-Monahan trade piece

Bennett

Getting Hall opens up alot of options.
At face value I really like this.

But factoring in so much smoke about Gaudreau not re-signing here, and Monahan openly saying if he could have locked up with the Flames for longer he would have, I think this example is a poorer use of assets.
