You all are too quick to ship out Monahan! He has his flaws, isn't an elite #1 C, but he is a good player to have in the top 6. I chalk last year up as a bad year, plagued with injuries.
How about we find a way to keep Monahan and also add Eichel? If that lame NYR offer is the stiffest competition we face, it should be possible.
I hope they find a way to get a deal done by sending a couple very high picks and good prospects to Buffalo. Maybe two 1st round picks, Zary, and Valamaki?
Keep Monahan. He and Lindholm can be on the 2nd line with Mangiapane; move either Monahan or Lindholm to the wing. We'd have 2 great lines out of our top 6, for the first time in a long time.
There must be a salary dump move that can make the cap math work.
