I am happy for Sean, and don't really care what Montreal received back. It doesn't change anything.
Monahan took a ton of abuse from this fanbase over the last few years here, and was also heavily underutilized when he was in the lineup.
This is example A of absolutely piss poor asset management whether it be from allowing him to play through injuries for years, removing him from the top PP unit when he was leading the team in PP points, and then forcing him to play a fourth line role with plugs down the stretch. Countless mistakes were made along the way which were only further compounded by the trade and subsequent signing of Kadri to a retirement contract.
Brutal stuff.
