As much as I think he would work well with Chucky for obvious reasons and possibly even be incentive for Chucky to stay on a more team friendly deal down the line... Maybe they should just do nothing but move Monahan, suck nuts and draft one of these generational players. Do the LA method. Keep a handful of good players but suck enough to draft high for a quick reload.

His AAV is certainly too high and it goes until he's 36, so the contract isn't pretty but unless there is something I'm missing IMO he would sure help fill the hole just left by Gio's departure.
About as bad as it gets, yes

Imagine if Tyson Barrie was also bad on the powerplay and you have OEL

I may be in the minority here but there are some grossly overvaluing of Connor Garland going on here.

I dont know enough about him to have an opinion other than I'd rather make the pick at 12. Moving that 1st or the next 2 1st round picks should be an absolute no go for CGY.

Err...yeah. He has struggled immensely playing second pair minutes in Arizona over the past couple seasons. Add on top that he is owed 31.5 million dollars over the next three seasons and you have a player that will be extremely hard to move without a significant cap dump going the other way or serious retention on the six years remaining on his contract.

Fair point, my knowledge of OEL is mostly limited to the odd Yates Flames game and then some box score/hockeydb browsing.

I agree, but I am not certain that flames brass do.

What was OEL's analytics in previous years? Like when he signed his current contract? Has he regressed since he signed it?

These things just don't make sense. How can a player THAT bad (according to analytics) get such an amazing contract and be considered a great player?

Spoiler!


They were very strong prior to signing the contract.

Many believe his struggles were due to his relationship with Tocchet and not seeing eye to eye, but that's certainly not a risk any team should be making with that contract in play.

Chayka was a scumbag con artist who never actually used analytics in his decision making and almost bankrupted his franchise with over twenty 250k fines before trying to jump ship to another team in violation of his contract

Turns out hiring a 26 year old GM wasn’t the best call

Not just Garland. Christian Dvorak has never cracked 20 goals or 40 points, and we're going to trade Sean Monahan for him? Yeah, Monahan is coming off a disappointing year, injury related. Some are going to point at his previous year as being disappointing. Does anyone really need to point out in that terribly disappointing season that he handily outscored Dvorak's career high? Handily! It should be Dvorak AND Garland for Monahan, and even that should require a sweetener. Now the Flames are throwing in Dube? People have gone completely loopy.

Dube is not as good and Garland is better than you are representing here. But I agree that Monahan > Dvorak.

But Monahan just rode Johnnys coat tails see. Dvorak would be better at it!

#greentext

Don't trade Monahan right now please.

This would almost have to be Lucic for OEL at this point with those kind of stats in another change of scenery deal. Im thinking Lucic is still better value for what he brings to the team.

Understatement. Lucic contract cash wise was paid out in bonuses so costs actually less money. Just the cap it which is way more favourable

Yup, I get it. Fans are sick of the same team and want change but Monahan+ for Dvorak is stupid. It is the inverse of most fan sites these days, I actually think Flames fans undervalue Flames players and overvalue pretty much any decent player from other teams.
