Honestly I think Calgary needs to understand if he’d be happy here before going and unloading to get him. Not worth the price if he’s going to come over and pout and quit on plays like he did tonight.
And I think the PLD hype on this site is also insane for what it’s worth. I’m usually first in line for the bash Monahan train but the Monahan and a first stuff was ludicrous to me. They’re pretty close with PLD having a touch more upside but this is not the next Eric Lindros. This is not a 100 pt player or even a 90 pt player I don’t think. Maybe he can reach around that 70-85 range realistically. So what is he really worth? Understanding it’s not all points and we could use his grit and size in the playoffs, you can’t afford to be continually giving up all these high end picks year over year for decades and expect different results as a franchise.

Totally agree with everything here; I’m thinking more and more PLD is a tad bit overhyped for what I’m trying to figure out what he’ll cost. I think Monahan is criminally underrated as well and dread the thought of dealing him in a package for PLD which is why I came to the Hanifin + Dube + futures/prospects combo that honestly is far too rich for sure.
Trading for disgruntled players is always a freaky thing to consider and it makes quite a bit of sense that two of them in Laine/PLD are rumoured to be swapping rinks.
No apologies necessary too man I over-reacted a bit too and I appreciate your response here! Have a grand weekend my friend!
