A better center for them for the next couple years, costing them more money and a lesser pick? If Cozens is going to be good enough for us to throw him in lineups as a #2C next year, why wouldn't Buffalo just do the same?

I feel like we might have to sweeten the deal for them to have interest.
Cozens could also absolutely bust and Eichel is getting annoyed. Most prospects end up busting or being disappointments. I am not a huge fan of moving Monahan because of that.
