Nice one. Similar to that year when Ramo when signed a one year contract for far more than he should have been able to receive on the open market. No long term harm done on a one year deal, but just kind of inexplicable really.
I am also pessimistic on Monahan. But I am hopeful that maybe the injury issues might not hit him this year and a somewhat healthy Monahan, at minimum, is good for the PP and the shootout.
A line of Monahan, Dube and Pitlick is an odd assortment and I'm not too sure what to think about it. If the Flames don't get out of the gates quickly I won't be at all surprised to see Gaudreau and Monahan reunited to try to distribute some scoring.
