Maybe I'm wrong, but I'll be shocked if the Habs get a 1st round pick for Sean Monahan.

Of course JFraud said this, no wonder so many here are in shambles, they quote this guy's 'numbers' like a Learning Book for Dummies. Imagine quoting Learning Economics for Dummies at a FTC Bureau. That isn't far off from the same energy

Monahan was probably the most rookie move you can do for a team in rebuild.. Timing was **** ! forgot the paper and use your logic... that guy make you miss Bedard Fantilli Carlson and Celebrini chances in 2024.. for Reinbacher , the 1st in 2024 around 6-9 and 2 x late 1st ??? when you already got tone of prospect and over 20 picks in 2024-2025.... dont really care about these 2 free late 1st tbh lol summer 2024 was the time to go get a Monahan... whats done s Done hen !

from a hockey stand point, this clearly makes the Jets way better. They aren't good in the dot, in fact it's one of their only legit weaknesses and they went and got someone who will help them a bunch there. He might resign. But in general, they needed that help, so if he stays healthy, this was a good move by them. What, they gave up a late first and another pick if they win the Cup?

Nobody in WPG gives a flyin eff about those pieces. They have a legit cupboard of mid 1st round picks coming up. Good to see them actually make an impact trade for once.

They going to resign DeMelo, Dillon, and Monahan?

So 25 games and 6 goals qualifies as the reason they missed out on Bedard?! what?

That gotta be one of the wildest comment i ever saw.

First of all, Montreal finished with the 5th odds, 8-9 pts ahead of 2nd, 3rd and 4th. So you are telling me that Monhan by himself was responsible for these 5 wins? He's got 6 goals and played for a quarter of the season. Moreover, it is odds, and the difference in odds between the fifth (MTL) and the 3rd (CHI, who actually won) was 3%. You are telling me you'd give a first for 3% of increased odds at Bedard?

This year, Mo was a game changer, not gonna lie. But you are crazy if you believe MTL is as bad as ANA, SJS and CHI. I'd say without mo we'd be closer to the 46 pts OTT are having.. which is like.. another 2,5%.

Imagine refusing 2 first for not even 3% increased odds at the lottery.

Was a bit surprised on this one but then when I saw the 3rd is conditional its fine

I mean, you can’t argue the results

Was the best center available

He’s been the perfect player in the bumper for the Jets on the PP. 8 goals in 12 games yet all the detractors kept saying he’d have no role on any PP and his numbers were inflated in Montreal.
95% got this wrong in every way possible

I'm pretty sure I said that's exactly what he would do (in this thread) and was shut down pretty quickly. I've learned that 99% don't have a clue what they're talking about.

Yikes... This trade's awful for Winnipeg

Monahan underperformed in the playoffs and the Jets got bounced in 5...

On the bright side, I called this from a mile away

Kind of hard to blame Monahan when the Jets defense was non-existent and the team allowed 5 goals or more EVERY playoff game (Hard to blame Hellebuyck too since he's also made the most saves of any goalie in the 1st rd so far)...

1A in 5 games as the 2C is brutal... Especially the Jets spending a 1st round pick on him to preform in these playoffs

Helly was also brutal but the Jets

There's a reason I have that guy blocked....

So you think 1 assist in 5 games is acceptable for a 1st?!?!?!!?!?!?

Just to add, we all agree the Foligno deal was bad for TO, right?

Monahan and Foligno had the same amount of playoff points with Foligno playing 1 less game...

What did you think about Nick Foligno?

Because Foligno had the same amount of playoff points in 1 less playoff game with he Leafs...

The point is to win the Stanley Cup and Monahan didn't do enough to get the Jets to 6 games, let alone 4 wins, let alone 16 wins...

And they spent a 1st one him, when if they were to have waited longer, his price would have gone down, look at Guentzel and Toffoli trade, so they could have gotten him for cheaper
