Don’t think there is much fire in front of the increased smoke around Monahan; media guys have to drum up a player at least from every team to fill the 10h of coverage they have Monday and that’s the seemingly the biggest name that other fans will recognize. Not Pelletier or Dube.
And not talked about enough is the friendship between your star pending UFA and Monahan, especially entering the most critical part of the season with the team as a whole, on a roll. I can’t say I know where the negotiations are with JG but if they were done done we’d know. If they aren’t, dropping your very good friend and linemate would be tough to see.
