Great job by the Habs, but let's not over-state the price Calgary paid. Chances are Monny was moving on as a free agent.

Ok well this makes it even worse? Why give up assets on someone that would become a free agent anyways in the near future. Ok fine you wanna dump a guy underperforming on a long-term deal.. it's going to cost you. This wasn't the case.
It was moreso Treliving's stubborness about the actual quality of the flames roster that made him make this giant head scratcher of a move.
