I mean if we have an injury at C and strike out on everything else, maybe... That 2nd would have to be a conditional 2nd, starting as a 3rd, not based on his value but solely based on Monahan's significant injury history.. He's not a bad player MTL fans, and this isn't a dig to get back at all the BS WPG fans had to swallow during the Dubios fiasco. The only thing of value he brings to the Jets is his FO stats. And I have a hard time seeing him displacing Namestnikov as the #2 C.
Both Namestnikov and Monahan have 23 points to date (Names 36 games played and Monahan 39 games played). Monahan, as far as I can tell is on the Habs 1st pp unit and also has had 92.73 more minutes of PP time (PP1 at that) than Namestnikov. I would argue that Namestnikov's play style fits more of how the Jets play than Monahan,, so at best, its a lateral move, for the sake of making a move and I just don't see the point of the Jets acquiring Monahan, unless there's an injury at C that needs to be addressed, on top of the Jets looking for a higher end 2C.
Where the Jets are currently 1st in the league, I think players with NMC/NTM's, may be more open to coming to WPG this year. I expect Chevy to do Chevy things and nab a player out of left field.
