It'll take such a bite out of the team's chemistry. Monahan might not be too missed, but Lucic seems like an important piece. Wish we had him at ~ 2, which is where he belongs at this point in his career.

Gudbranson, assuming he'll sign for around the same as he's making now (1,95) with a bit of term (3 years? 4?) is good value. But you're right, some pretty deep cuts need to happen to preserve the top line and the top 4 D.
