Could be some nice fits in BUF, but I think both deals are light, Mittlestadt and a 2nd do not bridge the gap that Monahan and Hanifan over Montour and Reinhardt, even if it were a 1st, I think its still light

Is Miller all New Jersey would want for Zacha? I'd be very happy with that.

I suppose I respectfully disagree, especially if the reports of a desire to remake the core in Calgary is true (this trade is based on that premise, so if you are here to tell me the rumors aren't true then just ignore the AGM). Reinhart is younger than Monahan (not by much), had a better season than monahan and has 2 more RFA years. Reinhart plus 2nd round pick for Monahan.

Montour replaces Brodie at RHD and despite his struggles playing his off hand with ristolainen as his partner, he had simliar 82 game pace stats to hanifin and they are losing 2 RHD likely. i add mittelstadt who while off to a bit of a rough start, still has value as a young center with skill.

Except Reinhart is a RW and Monahan is a C.
Centers are always worth more, especially when the center in question here has scored 20g every season since joining the NHL.
Reinhart had 1 better season than Monahan over their careers... and you're going to use that as a sticking point? lol that's not how it works.

Mittelstadt had a good pedegree in his draft year, but since then has faltered in Buffalo showing no signs of being anything dominant or skill wise.
He's now draft year +3 putting up a career high 25pts in 77 games in 2018.
Demoted to the AHL this year after a measly 9pts in 31 games.
He's not worth anything close to what you think he is "rough start" or not, his stock has dropped the last 3 years.

Hanifin > Montour (age + contract cost & length taken into consideration)
Monahan > Reinhart

If Calgary is giving this up then the pick needs to be #8 not a 2nd round.

I don't understand why people just make things up. Monahan has not scored 30 goals every single season since being in the NHL. He has done so 3 times in 7 years.

This is one of the worst offers I've ever seen for two of the Flames core players.

A top 4 Dman who is RFA and rumors are the Sabres are considering not even qualifying him, another RFA right winger who is going to get over paid because he's been leaching off of Eichel for the better part of his career, a prospect who's stock has taken a massive hit since being drafted because he is busting HARD, and a 2nd round pick that's 3 drafts away?

LOL no thanks

Also, Monahan has averaged 0.36 goals per game since coming into the NHL, that is 29.5 goals per 82 games and includes his rookie season and this most recent "down" season. The guy is pretty much a 30 goal scorer.

I'm not mad lol.

The Montour stuff came from Friedman and is probably a lot more reliable than your so called "report" that the Flames are blowing up their core. And even if they do it won't be for a crap offer like this one.
