They need a Center behind Scheifele most, then D 2nd.
I feel like Monahan would be great for them. He would be great for us as well behind Lindholm, but then you would be wasting one of Backlund or Bennett. We owe it to Bennett to give him his own consistent line at C with Lucic and Dube. He's not asking much in terms of linemates, just consistent ones and an opportunity to succeed.
So it comes down to Backlund or Monahan....Monahan would return a lot more in a trade than Backlund.
