Trying to get out in front of Lindholm is a smart play by Hughes. I miss the Bergevin days....

Avs fans are getting ready to jump on the fire MacFarland bandwagon.
This does not move the needle for the Avs at all. He’s not a fit. He can’t skate. He can’t feast off of the PP. MacFarland would be repeating Eller and Johansen. Just do the smart thing, MacFarland instead of wasting a future 2nd on Monahan.
Never mistake activity for achievement.

Boston and Colorado don't have farm system to land Lindholm. He will go either Winnipeg or Vancouver. Colorado probably inside track on Monahan.
Boston and Toronto may call about him but I doubt Montreal trades him there.
This many bidders though, Habs should get full blown retail
If I may; you’ll be surprised at how effective of a player he is if he goes to your team.
I know I was when we got him, he’s legit for what he is, a 2/3c. Can play wing, but solid player.
Monahan isn’t a #2C on a contender

Monahan is a 3C.
This is a good sign for Winnipeg getting Lindholm and tracks with what Sean reynolds from Sportsnet was saying.
Winnipeg has zero interest in monahan and has their sights set higher. Not too often Wpg is chasing the top free agent and leaving the no name version for Boston and Colorado to fight over.
The asking price is likely a 2nd and maybe a c prospect. Not much difference in where that pick will be if the choices are Boston Vancouver or Colorado. Good luck guessing who makes it further in the playoffs from those three and which pick will be worse.

I doubt the Canucks are interested. Doesn’t seem like an RT-type.
He’d be a number 2 on Boston and Colorado.
So by that measure neither of those teams are contenders. Hot take bond!!!

No he would not. Coyle, Zacha, and Colton are all very easily better 5v5 players.
You're dead wrong. I like Monny, but c'mon man. That's ridiculous.
Colorado does. Boston maybe does too. Colorado has Ritchie, Gulyayev, Behrens. They also have their first.

Fair enough but why would you start from the position of “we’re not looking for the best offer”

Surprised that the Rangers aren’t in on him, being Garth Joy has been seen at many Habs games this year.
They must not like his skating or are maybe more focused on Lindholm. Vince Mercogliano previously wrote about how the organization is taking skating ability into heavy consideration.

Signed - someone who hardly, if ever, actually watches Monahan play.
PS: A very late 2nd (really a 3rd) ain't doing it. Mark those words.

CGY should be all over this. They would happily give up a 1st to get him back.

In the video Dreger says a contending team or a team of your choice so my interpretation is he will be traded to the contending team with the best offer. If all offers are fairly equal than Monahan can choose the team.
