But people need to recognized it was the worst offseason in NHL history for making a trade. Almost every potential deal would have to be dollar in for dollar out. The number of teams interested in those two guys would have been small. And the return would have been nothing close to what fans expected - opposing scouts and GMs are well aware of the deficiencies of Gaudreau and Monahan.

I was of the view they should be moved at that time as well.
They were certainly available but the market was generally weak, plus I think no one was loading up the truck for Johnny or Monny.
I believe that Treliving hoped they would recoup some value this year. Unfortunately, the opposite has occurred.
