White for Monahan - read description

Team: 2022-23 Ottawa Senators

Initial Creation Date: Apr. 2, 2022

Published: Apr. 2, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Ottawa flips White to Calgary for Monahan. White can be bought out at a price of just $875,000 for five years. Monahan is given a fresh start with a new team) waiving his ntc as needed).

Ottawa gets a player that could rebound or be used for depth. His contract gets them a second, they get out from one of their bad contracts. Since Monahan has only 2 years left, his end date aligns with Murray and Zaitsev (all three = $17M) when they have to resign Sanderson, Jarventie, Boucher, Sogaard, Greig, Lassi, JBD, as well as others.

Based on the Harmonic trade, I assume Ottawa doesn't think it can sign new FA this off-season because of market/ownership/business reasons.

Not sure about Talbot trade - my assumption is Minn tears down and needs youth /prospect. Gaudette is a decent bottom 6 who might get you a pick at TDL. Brannstom is question mark whether be becomes anything more than a decent bottom D. Tychonick doesn't look to be a great prospect but might sign near to where he plays (Uni) and two thirds to take Murray's contract. Maybe throw in Gustavsson.
