My guess is that package would not interest the Sabres in the least.

Also, admittedly I am not a Monahan fan at all, but that is an overpayment for 2 years of an overpaid Monahan. Every game Monahan plays right now his value drops. He was barely noticeable in the Oiler game and he was noticeable for all the wrong reasons in the Ducks game.

 

[Old Navy Goat]

White + Formonton is a big bunch of meh, not interesting in the least.

 

[Puikiou]

Sean Monahan has actually been terrible for a while now and isn't an upgrade on Norris or Pinto at this point in time. Pass.

He was injured for all but 6 games last year. Enough that he couldnt even bend down to pick up his car keys by game 10 of the season

Is this supposed to help his value?

No but its supposed to clarify the situation.

On second thought, where do we sign to acquire this physical specimen who can't bend over? Just pulling your chain but this just shows there's some other concerns at play with Monahan.

Monahan is a solid player when healthy and someone a lot of Sens fans have a soft-spot for because of his time with the 67s but:
1) The team is VERY high on Alex Formenton.
2) Monahan is not the kind of player they'd move a Formenton for regardless of fair market value.

This just does not make sense for Ottawa.

 

[HaNotsri]

Zary+2022 1st+2023 1st would probably be a good bid. Add bad 1-2 year contracts if needed.

 

[King Karl]

White + Formonton is a big bunch of meh, not interesting in the least.

You're not wrong on White, but Formenton is looking pretty legit. Dude is big and has absurd wheels, could definitely project as a very solid 2nd/3rd line winger.

The unable to bend down thing was prior to his surgery in April.

I can understand not wanting to trade Formenton, I personally would be fine doing something around Brannstrom myself but that also comes down to Buffalo being interested in him.

Tbh if any team goes for Monahan in a 3-way Eichel trade I see it being Boston

 

[dasaybz]

Way too many players going to buffalo here. I'd take quality over quantity any day.

 

[NyQuil]

I really like Formenton. I'd pass.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Its really not, you are getting plenty of quality. Expecting anyone to give up a much better prospect than Zary is not realistic.

This is also a 3-way trade so Buffalo is essentially getting Monahan and Zary as a base then flipping Monahan for other pieces

 

[TheNewEra]

Monahan isnt returning that much value. Since he was injured last year he needs to prove he can play up to the prior level before he returns anywhere close to that imo well at least from Ottawa anyways

 

[dasaybz]

Expecting anyone to give up a much better prospect than Zary is not realistic.

C'mon haha. We're talking about Eichel here.

 

[treple13]

Absolutely not dealing roster players and the 2022 unconditional 1st for a guy who's not playing for the Flames right now. I'd probably do this deal if Eichel was healthy right now, but otherwise no thank you.

(I'd also do it from Calgary if we can top 10 protect the 2022 1st)

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

C'mon haha. We're talking about Eichel here.

No we are talking about a totalled sports car here.

Name 1 prospect noticeably better than Zary that you think Buffalo will get

I'm pretty sure the 4 equivalent 1st round picks for Jack Eichel are dead, No freaking way is Adams getting 4 1st rounders for Eichel. Eichel probably wont even get his surgery until he's dealt to his new team. And that lessens his value greatly.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Ottawa gets hosed here

 

[ManofSteel55]

Why is Ottawa involved? Just include Monahan in the package for Eichel.

 

[TehDoak]

Not sure Monahan is waiving his NMC for Buffalo.

 

[TehDoak]

There is a 3 way deal with Calgary and Buffalo, but it likely involves Tkachuk going to a 3rd team

 

[KevinRedkey]

Zero interest in Monahan at that cost

 

[dasaybz]

No we are talking about a totalled sports car here.

A totalled sports car? hahah get a clue bro
