Hot take: Monahan out scores Eichel this year

I would rather pay that price than Tkachuk, Zary, 12th overall which is often the price that many have said they will pay.
Columbus is eating a 6.375M cap hit without dumping any salary for a guy who has had injuries, declining production, and without his elite playmaking winner. I actually thought the Jackets were the biggest loser in the deal.
4 way trades I do not believe have happened in the NHL but happen in the NBA frequently when big name players are on the move. The Harden deal this season was Brooklyn, Houston, Indiana, and Cleveland. I do get the feeling in order for Buffalo to get what they want they will need multiple teams to be part of the deal.
I think the only way Monahan out scores Eichel is if Eichel misses a bunch of time due to this injury.
