I should clarify, I dont entirely disagree with the package you put, I was disagreeing with your analysis.
Personally I would be asking for Grieg and a pair of 2nds, bit more than what Nashville paid you for 1 year of Turris
I will say that's not outrageous or extravagant.
However, I don't think Ottawa is the right team to be trading for Monahan.
A team that lost out on the Jack Eichel sweepstakes (Minnesota Wild, New York Rangers, etc) would be a better fit for Monahan IMO.
I'd like to know where our team is at least a month or two into the season before making any risky trades with high stakes.
There were rumors that the Ottawa would be in on Ryan Strome of the New York Rangers.
But if we're not going to be competitive, trading for Strome (or Monahan for that matter) would not make a whole lot of sense for Ottawa.
I don't want Pierre Dorion/Eugene Melnyk throwing away our progress we have made for the last 2 years because we decided to chase the next Matt Duchene.
