Don't think Montreal brings him back, I recall Hughes alluding to that in one of his dressers if I recall

It better not be Montreal.

Is he the kind of guy that will just pick the highest contract offer? I don’t think 4.5 will be the best offer. There will be a club that offers over 10 mil.

He seemed to be a good fit in montreal

$10M for two years. He had a 60 point season but has injury history. He is 29 years and can score

If the Leafs can move off of Tavares I could see them going for SM. Maybe 15 mil?

Columbus with E. Lindholm following.
Gaudreau, Monahan, Lindholm.

 

[Flair Hay]

Even if he wasn't an impact guy in the playoffs, I can't see the Jets not pushing to re-sign him. Doesn't mean they win out, but they will try I believe.

 

[oobga]

He should get with his boy Johnny Hockey and enjoy some zero pressure no playoffs hockey to finish off his career.

 

[KodakGinger]

I’d love him back in Calgary, but I could see Ottawa or Columbus

 

[HuGort]

My guess is Winnipeg or Montreal at $4.5M for three years.

Montreal record was a lot better with him in lineup. But doubt he goes back there. Monahan solid player will get big contract and Newhook came on after trade.

I figure Montreal is unlikely, but always a possibility as a plan B. If the teams who have an apparent need for him are worried about his health and don't give him a serious offer, I could see him returning to Montreal for 1 to 3 years. This could also happen if he gets greedy and by the time he comes down to earth interested teams have signed other players. To a certain extent I guess that's what happened in the summer of '23 and could happen again.

Montreal, so we can scam some other team for another 1st.

 

[CanMerc]

Hopefully, anywhere but Winnipeg

 

[Hickflyer]

I am a Montreal fan but how about San Jose or Chicago for starters.

Caproom big deal for Jets. Monahan looking for last big contract.

Jets need to boost their defense first.

 

[Gaud]

Why those two? I assume he wants to be somewhere with a chance to win the cup soonish

Why?

I think it’s a case of, if he wants to cash in and have some term it will probably be a bad team. If he wants to win, short term low salary type of thing.

Monahan is a 3c on any playoff team, unless he comes cheap no interest in resigning him (Jets have more important positions/players to spend cap on). Slow, not a great shot, only ok defensively but good at FO's and PP. In meaningful games his weaknesses got exposed. IMO

 

[Juxtaposer]

I am a Montreal fan but how about San Jose or Chicago for starters.

I could definitely see the Sharks going after him as a stopgap middle-6 C, especially if we don’t get Celebrini and Smith decides on another year in the NCAA. Obviously if Monahan care about winning he wouldn’t consider us.

 

[Petes2424]

Detroit still needs that 2C in the short term. He fits there if they strike out on the Stamkos front.

I don't see the fit.

He'll want more than one year, and the cap space is tight.

 

[Flair Hay]

Why?

He was a really good glue piece for us. Gave us a competent bumper on PP, just a unspectacular well rounded player.

I'd be surprised if the Jets were not in on him and trying to pay to move Schmidt's money out
