Keep Gaudreau but take the spotlight off him

Created by: Flames22
Team: 2020-21 Calgary Flames
Initial Creation Date: Aug. 23, 2020
Published: Aug. 23, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
We should keep Gaudreau. I think he could be very valuable for this team if 1) He has a more dynamic centre to play with; and 2) He gets chances against weaker opposition because the other teams are too busy playing their best defenders against the likes of Hall, Tkachuk, Reinhart, etc. And this is nothing against Monahan - I like him and think that he is a good player, just not the right one for Gaudreau.

Expansion-protected forwards:
- Tkachuk
- Hall
- Lindholm
- Reinhart
- Bennett
- Dubé
- Gaudreau (protect Hornqvist/Ryan instead if you know Gaudreau isn't going to sign)
- Cozens (exempt)

Expansion-protected defense:
- Andersson
- Miller
- Hanifin
- Valimaki (exempt)

Expansion-protected goalie:
- Murray

They might do Cozens for Monahan 1 for 1.

Monahan is better than Reinhart by like a low 1st not Cozens and Montour.

Cozens is one of the best prospects in hockey. Monahan is coming off a down year.

This is horrible.

Flames centre depth screams keeping Monahan.
I say keep both and roll it back.

Change out other pieces

That doesnt change the fact that Monahan is a proven asset highly expected to bounce back and Cozens is not
