Sean Monahan

The Calgary Flames have moved centre Sean Monahan to the Montreal Canadians to free up room to sign Nazem Kadri, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

In 2016, Monahan signed a seven-year, $44.6 million contract with an AAV of $6.375 million. On April 2, the Flames announced Monahan would have season-ending hip surgery. Over the past two seasons, Monahan has struggled with injuries, requiring hip surgeries in both

The Calgary Flames have traded Sean Monahan and a 2025 conditional first-round pick to the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for future considerations, it was announced Thursday. He was a key contributor in the team's Stanley Cup run, scoring seven goals and adding eight assists in 16 playoff contests. Monahan underwent right hip surgery in early April, ending the lowest-scoring season of his career early. Calgary initially selected Monahan sixth overall in the 2013 NHL Draft. “On behalf of the entire Flames organization, I sincerely thank Sean for his nine years of selfless dedication and perseverance,” said general manager Brad Treliving in a news release. We wish Sean and his wife Brittany every success in this new chapter of their lives and once again say thank you.”

Le Canadien de Montréal a acquis jeudi l'attaquant Sean Monahan des Flames de Calgary, selon ce qu'ont indiqué plusieurs sources.

«Au nom de toute l'organisation des Flames, je remercie Sean pour ses neuf années de dévouement et de persévérance, a écrit le DG Brad Treliving dans le communiqué. Ennuyé par les blessures dans les récentes années, l’Ontarien a éprouvé des ennuis en 2021-2022, devant subir une opération à la hanche après avoir vu sa saison prendre fin au début avril. La transaction a été confirmée par les deux organisations par voie de communiqué.

After news broke that the Calgary Flames will be signing Nazem Kadri, the obvious move to clear cap space was trading away Sean Monahan's contract.

While he is cost-prohibitive at his full cap hit, a retained Monahan for the last part of the season could be an attractive target for contenders looking to add some depth. In fact, should Monahan prove healthy enough, he might even be a nice deadline chip for the team to re-sell. If he does play, it will be interesting to see how the Canadiens fit Monahan in. If the veteran goaltender is placed on long-term injured reserve again, the team would have some added flexibility. For the Canadiens, who are trying to orchestrate a full rebuild under new general manager Kent Hughes, going after Monahan is a no-brainer. That will be the case as Monahan [is headed](https://twitter.com/NHLFlames/status/1560382496860033025) to the Montreal Canadiens.

La planète hockey a été secouée en apprenant que Nazem Kadri signait avec les Flames plus tôt aujourd'hui. L'action était loin d'être terminée à Calgary…

Si Primeau joue à Laval, toutefois, son contrat n’affectera pas la masse de l’équipe. Attendons de voir le retour obtenu par le directeur général et ce qu’il a donné pour faire l’acquisition du joueur de centre. Est-ce officiellement la fin de la carrière du numéro 31? La question à mille piasses : qui sera échangé? Ça commence à faire du monde à messe. L’action était loin d’être terminée à Calgary, alors que Sean Monahan a été échangé au Canadien de Montréal quelques instants plus tard pour faire de la place sur la masse salariale.

Kadri added 15 points (seven goals, eight assists) in 16 playoff games, including the overtime winner in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup final against Tampa Bay.

The three-time 30-goal scorer tallied just eight goals and 15 assists for 23 points in 65 games last season. Forward Jonathan Huberdeau and Mackenzie Weegar became part of the organization on July 22. Meantime, Kadri added 15 points (seven goals, eight assists) in 16 playoff games, including the overtime winner in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup final against Tampa Bay. Our team and city were fortunate to have him as a player, ambassador and member of our community. Along with that come 52 games of Stanley Cup Playoffs experience with 19 goals and 25 assists for 44 points. Go Flames go,” Kadri said in the Thursday afternoon news release.

Monahan, 27, a 6-foot-2, 200-pounder, played 65 games last season, scoring eight goals and adding 15 assists.

Kadri, who will turn 32 in October, had 28 goals and a career-high 87 points in 71 games with the Colorado Avalanche last season. 6 overall in the 2013 NHL draft. Article content

In exchange for Monahan and the first-round pick, Calgary received future considerations. Monahan's last 20-goal season came when he scored 22 times in 2019-20, and his production has really fallen off a cliff since then. Through his first six years with the Flames, Monahan scored a total of 182 goals, including a career-best 34 tallies in the 2018-19 season.

Je n'aimerais rien de plus que de voir une autre bannière à Calgary», a mentionné Kadri. «Je ne pourrais pas être plus excité de rejoindre une base de partisans et une organisation aussi passionnées. Il apporte à notre groupe un haut niveau d'habileté et de détermination. Je n'ai entendu que des bonnes choses et j'ai hâte de contribuer. «C'est un club emblématique, a dit Monahan.

Il y a trois ans, Sean Monahan n'était pas que l'un des meilleurs joueurs des Flames de Calgary. Il était l'un des meilleurs de la LNH.

Il a aujourd’hui décidé de se « prioriser ». La saison dernière, il a rendu un différentiel de -15, de loin le pire chez les Flames, l’un des clubs qui ont accordé le moins de buts de toute la ligue. Parlez-en à Paul Byron, qui a raté la majorité des matchs du CH la saison dernière et qui devrait s’absenter de nouveau l’automne prochain. Le premier à être conscient de la situation, c’est évidemment Monahan lui-même. La seule composition de cette transaction trahit à quel point la carrière de Monahan est en déclin. Il était l’un des meilleurs de la LNH.

Un choix conditionnel de premier tour a également été acquis de Calgary en échange de considérations futures.

Montréal recevra le choix le mieux positionné entre le choix de premier tour de Calgary en 2026 ou le choix de premier tour de la Floride en 2026 (une fois que l'ordre final du repêchage 2025 de la LNH est déterminé), (acquis précédemment par Calgary). - 3) Si le choix de premier tour de la Floride en 2025 (acquis précédemment par Calgary) est dans le top 10 et que le choix de premier tour de Calgary en 2025 n'est pas dans le top 10 (une fois que l'ordre final du repêchage 2025 de la LNH est déterminé), alors Montréal recevra le choix de premier tour Calgary en 2025 ou ; - 2) Si le choix de premier tour de Calgary en 2025 est dans le top 10 et que le choix de premier tour de la Floride en 2025 (acquis précédemment par Calgary) n'est pas dans le top 10 (une fois que l'ordre final du repêchage 2025 de la LNH est déterminé), alors Montréal recevra le choix de premier tour de la Floride en 2025.

A conditional first-round pick has also been acquired from Calgary in exchange for future considerations.

Montreal shall receive the better of Calgary's 2026 first (1st) round choice or Florida's 2026 first (1st) round choice (following the determination of the 2026 NHL Draft lottery results) (previously conditionally acquired by Calgary). If Calgary's own 2025 first (1st) round choice is not in the top-10 selections of the 2025 NHL Draft (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), Montreal shall receive Calgary's own 2025 first (1st) round choice, and additionally, - B) If Calgary's own 2025 first (1st) round choice is a top-10 selection and Florida's 2025 first round selection (previously acquired by Calgary) is outside of the top-10 selections (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), Montreal shall receive Florida's 2025 first (1st) round choice).

For nine seasons, Monahan and the Flames fit like a glove, and both leave the other better for having been paired over that period of time. In his first camp, he was ready and made a push for a roster spot. That allowed Treliving to focus his attention on other things, as finding a good centre was a problem he didn’t need to solve. Monahan and Gaudreau found instant chemistry, and for the next six seasons were attached at the hip on the first line with a rotating selection of wingers – Jiri Hudler, Micheal Ferland and Elias Lindholm were their primarily wingmen. On Thursday afternoon, Monahan’s tenure with the Flames ended when he was traded to the Montreal Canadiens for cap space. And every time Burke or Feaster made a public or private pronouncement about what would need to happen for Monahan to remain, the forward rose to the challenge.

However, the Canadiens just acquired Monahan (and the first) for as close to nothing as you can get, with the potential to parlay him into additional futures next trade deadline. It also extends to the front office and Hughes and the Canadiens are getting the job done. He currently writes about all things Habs for THW, with it being a career highlight for him to have covered the 2021 Stanley Cup Final as a credentialed member of the press. Monahan himself was the cost to acquire it (along with “future considerations,” all so that the Flames could make room to sign [Nazem Kadri](https://thehockeywriters.com/docs/nazem-kadri/)). In what will almost certainly be a losing season, no one should expect so much from Dach that he is able to firmly establish himself as that second center the Canadiens so desperately need. Either Monahan falls flat, in which case the Canadiens wouldn’t want to keep him past this season, or he becomes the Monahan of old, in which case the Canadiens likely wouldn’t be able to fit him under the cap, similar to the Flames, who paid an arm and leg just to get rid of him. [Success in 2022-23 for the Canadiens](https://thehockeywriters.com/montreal-canadiens-keys-successful-2022-23-slafkovsky-price/) will look drastically different than in past seasons, and that should extend throughout the lineup, Dach included. At least Hughes has confirmed in the past that the idea is for Dach to develop at center. In the here and now though, it’s possible Monahan takes over the role to help bring him along more slowly. That’s what Monahan (50.4%) brings to the table, at least in the immediate future.
