Confirmed Signing with Link: [CGY] Calgary re-signs Sean Monahan (7 Years, $6.375M AAV)

[DJJones]

Stay on topic people.

I hate Francis so I hope he's wrong but sounds like Monahan is going to get more than all of his comparables that signed this summer.

I was hoping for some magic to happen but if he signs for 8 years I don't really care.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

I'd be very okay with anything under 7 for 8 years. Closer it gets to 7, less ecstatic I get, but still happy to have him locked up long term.

Sean Monahan > Wayne Scheifele

 

[Beezeral]

Sean Monahan & CGY Agree to an Extension 7 yrs 6.3 AAV

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

between 6-7 mil x 8 years is my guess

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

between 6-7 mil x 8 years is my guess

Isn't that pretty much Gaudreau range as well?

 

[Malkinstheman]

I will say 6.35 x 7

 

[Aceboogie]

Probably best sign for Flames. I was expecting him to hold out longer to wait for JG deal. Ill say 6 mil for Monahan and 7 for JG

Gaudreau should land on the north side of 7.

I'll predict 8 years, 6.575M for Monahan.

Slightly above Mackinnon's cap-hit due to the extra year.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Maybe something around $6.5M for 7-8 years or so.

Gaudreau should get 7+, if not something approaching 8.

 

[WTFMAN99]

Wonder if Burke is going to enforce that 5 year contract limit...

 

[InfinityIggy]

between 6-7 mil x 8 years is my guess

I think if they can get Gaudreau for 8 years they will give Monahan 7 so that they both don't expire in the same offseason.

 

[MAHJ71]

Clearly they're waiting for the Vesey domino to fall

Winner

Neutral fan jumping in. Monahan was a 60 point center at 20 and then essentially reproduced that at 21. No knock on Scheifele but right now they are roughly similar in production with one being 2 years younger.

I'll take Monahan over Sheifele right now

Agreed.. And I'd die to have either on the centerless CBJ

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Wonder if Burke is going to enforce that 5 year contract limit...

Brad Treliving is our GM and has enough autonomy that it's not Burke's call.

 

[Mitts]

Fan 960 says it's confirmed done. Press conference this afternoon.

Sean Monahan extended in CAL. Seven years, it's around Nathan MacKinnon's AAV ($6.3M).

Makes sense.

 

[DJJones]

As long as it's 7 or 8 years I don't overly care about AAV

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Good for CGY. Always love seeing smaller Canadian markets lock up young stars long-term.

CGY, EDM and WPG battles are gonna be like the mid-'80s. Should be fun.

 

[Roof Daddy]

Wonder if Gaudreau now signs for the same term? 7 years, 50 million (7.14 per)? Would be a helluva job by Treliving if the numbers came in around there.

 

[InfinityIggy]

7 years is perfect. They can safely give Gaudreau 8 years now. The caphit (6.3~) is pretty good too.

I thought it would be the other way. Monahan getting 8, Gaudreau getting 7

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Gaudreau should get 7+, if not something approaching 8.

Yeah that's pretty much my thinking as well.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Yeah that's pretty much my thinking as well.

I think Gaudreau will end up around 7.25x8.
