I'm open to correction or hearing your opinion, but to dismiss my opinion as "wrong" is a bit much. Can you explain your position? Can you tell me why we had to throw a first round pick into the deal to get Montreal to take Monahan's salary off our books?
We're not talking about trading Markstrom the player, we're talking about trading Markstrom's contract, and the remaining $16.5 million he's owed on it. For that contract to have positive trade value, he'd need to be playing lights out every game, which he simply isn't.
