Oh no, Juolevi's bad! Moving on.

I don't think that is subpar, but maybe that's just me...

Okay, so it was troll-like, but I've made my opinions on Monahan pretty clear in the past. While many were on the "Trade Gaudreau" Bandwagon, I've always been team "trade Monahan!". I think he's less important than Gaudreau as far as making things happen offensively and because NHL gms have hard-ons for big centers, he'd net you more. At the end of the day, Monahan is a defensive black hole and a shooter as a center. He's never going to drive play on his own, he needs someone to do the leg work for him. As a winger, I'd think Monahan was the bees-knees but as a center... you can easily make a case for there being nine centers better than him in his division, one of whom is on his team. So he's the 10th best center in the North Division? Depending how you rate what Montreal has, 11th or 12th?
Like, not even trying to be a dick-head. Any Flames rebuild starts with moving Monahan out for a king's ransom.
