That would be very bad asset management
Good thing Lucic won't cost anywhere near that with 1$ million in cash on his contract next year (Assuming he waives)
He will be playing for Seattle next season providing leadership and protection for their young players. And I don't even think the Flames will need to attach much of a sweetener.
Monahan is trickier. I think we see a D paid ~2.5/3million on a expiring contract come back (Similar to Zad or Gun) to replace them to a team hoping for an offense boost from Monny playing him on the 2nd line. Flames may have to attach a prospect, but teams are always looking for offense and I believe someone will look at Monny and think putting him with a playmaker on the 2nd line can get you 25 goals again.
Flames probably end up take a contract back thats expiring or has 2 years left to make it happen, and it seems to make since an underachieving D to be that contract especially if we loose our 3rd pairing to UFA
