It's now confirmed for Sean Monahan
It's now confirmed by David Pagnotta that the Canadiens will definitely trade Sean Monahan, and they could receive a first-round pick in return.
The insider went even further by stating that Kent Hughes has received concrete offers, including one for a young forward with top 6 potential.
Renaud Lavoie was quick to deny this news. It's up to you to decide who between the two is more credible. One thing is certain, offer or not, Monahan is the most talked-about face in the Canadiens, perhaps even in the NHL when it comes to the trade deadline.
Pierre LeBrun, who is even more reputable than the other two mentioned above, has confirmed that Monahan will indeed be traded, and his value is a first-round pick.
"Pierre Lebrun on Insider Trading saying that his sources believe Sean Monahan can net the #GoHabsGo a 1st-round pick, especially if they retain 50% of his salary.
Says teams will wait 2-3 weeks before getting serious, and Monahan's market will be impacted by Elias Lindholm." Elias Lindholm, another forward who will undoubtedly be traded. He has already informed the Flames that he will not sign a contract extension in Calgary.
The price to acquire him will be directly linked to Monahan's, but expect some significant trades in both cases.
