Andersson is already a solid 2nd pairing d-man with all-around abilities, and has potential to grow into a top pairing role. Not to mention he's locked into a long-term deal that is more than reasonable for what he does.
He's hardly a "spare part", and those are the types of players that are tough to part with which would make a deal like this work. Monahan still scores plenty of goals and can off-set the loss of Eichel at the center position. Add in a 1st round pick for any perceived disparity in value. No issues with cap management for either team as you have about $10 million going both ways.
I put a lot of thought into that proposal. Not sure I got much real thought from your response. Suggest something better that would actually be a reasonable and feasible deal.
