Monahan is a good and rare example though. That was a dumb move by Treliving that isn’t likely to be repeated. And I think the Flames will have cap room without getting rid of Huberdeau to do deals like that.
Huberdeau’s cap hit will hurt in 4 years when guys to be drafted now are coming up for extension. But then, that was always going to happen.
This thread is about “what to do with Huberdeau” and to me cap hit is pretty irrelevant to that. Whining about it doesn’t add anything to the topic.
