Sure you can focus on Monahan and his trade value today. What could he have gotten at the draft last year? I said at that time he should be moved for picks which you could use later. Maybe that wouldn't have worked IDK.

Fundamentally it's much bigger than trading Sean Monahan. I believe the core of the the team has stagnated which has led to a lot of the underperformance. In fact, not sure the core was ever all that great outside of a 60 game stretch. I put much of that responsibility on the individual charged with building the team. Others feel differently.

There are thousands of scenarios that could have unfurled. Some want to argue he's incompetent at every turn. Others want to tell you all the possible reasons why he might not have made a deal.

Here we are.
