Monahan could be hurt
But nobody saying trade these two right now before they lose their value.

And unless people were suggesting blowing it up and tanking after the most successful regular season in recent history, I see no point in trading those guys at that time. You aren't trading them for the better players Calgary needed either then or now. Calgary either needed an elite right wing to play with those guys (or maybe in a new line combo along with the other two guys), or an elite centre to allow that line to get some shelter. Trade those two and (a) you don't get one of those and (b) now you don't have those guys for the new guy to play with.
