You can the deal Monahan to recoup a few of those assets.
We need a star. Pay to get one.
We wouldn’t have missed the assets we should’ve given for Thornton.
We wouldn’t have missed the 3 or more 1sts it took to get MacKinnon.
We wouldn’t have missed Backlund + it would’ve taken to get O’Reilly.
If we’re going to spend, it might as well be on the most important position.
I know we’re not getting him, and it’s embarrassing that we won’t pony up the cost.
