monahan for drouin would be intriguing

instead of the rest of the mess with lucic valimaki the pick and Dadonov? that would be intriguing
Drouin 50% retained for monahan and a 3rd or something like that. and theen Flames still signing Kadri with that extra 4m in space

i mostly just don't see that part as necessary. flames dont really need that type of help.

Flames add a 1st

No they dont lmao

Then no deal
Habs pass in a heartbeat
There is no reason for Habs to take on MORE cap space... using cap dumps.

Habs want to REMOVE cap space by trading those 2... not more cap for a mere 2nd rounder

Horrible trade.

Mark my words: Look at the return at trade deadline for both Drouin AND Dadonov...
Monahan AND Lucic bring ZERO added value, except more cap space.

Absolutely disgusting trade for Montreal.

They're all expiring deals so it doesn't really matter if you guys take on more cap since theyll be off the books anyways, it would matter if you guys were in a position to compete which you aren't. Lucic and Monahan are character guys that could half retained fetch some sort of return at the deadline.

A 2nd and Valimaki isnt a bad return considering cause you guys are hurting for NHL quality dmen and theres a young one who could turn into a good fit for you guys, either way im not gonna give up a first for Dadonov and Drouin and if you guys want that first that badly I am perfectly comfortable not having them and looking elsewhere.
