I’m not saying I’m right, it was a suggestion. And it’s not ridiculous.

It kinda is...even 1.3M isn't going to change Montreal's demands from a 1st to a 2nd. Why would it? makes no sense. They don't care about cap they care about the asset that is why they are taking a cap dump.
Also, nobody else was doing the deal...9 other possible teams, unlikely anyone else with the space or the desire. Teams like Arizona wouldn't have been on his list.
Its fine if you don't care for the signing but there is no point in making things up to make it worse
Rooney is not relevant to the Monahan deal at all
