Will they?
If the Flames buy him out they save $4 million on the cap, if they trade him they save $6.375 million,
Monahan also has a modified no move clause.
I struggle to see someone wanting a 3rd line center for that cap hit, without the Flames retaining salary. If they retain $2 million, maybe but that seems like a tough needle to thread with a no move.
