I don’t understand how this improves the team. Even those who criticize Monahan just think the Flames need a better 1C. Not that he’s a liability. So you fill a hole at 2RD but create a bigger one at 1C - Lindholm, Backlund and Bennett just aren’t going to improve the position. So you are getting weaker down the middle, not saving money or increasing contract certainty with more term.
Now if you say Bennett+ for Dumba, then I can see it. Trading a lower C who still has potential for a pretty established RHS on D. The issue then is the add - Kylington and the Edmonton 3rd?
