TRADE ALERT: Full Details of Elias Lindholm Trade to Vancouver Confirmed and it Changed Everything for Sean Monahan and the Montreal Canadiens
It took quite a while to get the full details and official confirmation, but here they are!
The Flames acquire:
Andrei Kuzmenko
A 2024 1st round pick
Hunter Brzustewicz
Joni Jurmo
and a conditional 4th round pick in 2024.
The Canucks acquire:
Elias Lindholm.
There you have it. The final transaction is completed, Lindholm is now in Vancouver, and all eyes are now on Kent Hughes and Sean Monahan, who instantly becomes the best available center on the market.
Expect many teams that failed to acquire Lindholm to immediately turn to Monahan.
Kent Hughes is going to receive a lot of calls in the next few hours, if not already.
"A trade this early for Elias Lindholm means a significant increase in bargaining power for Kent Hughes in the Sean Monahan file.
Monahan is the best center available after Lindholm, so the teams that «missed out» will quickly turn to Monahan.
Another bonus: His low AAV makes him a possibility for almost all the buying teams. More demand = offers will increase, and the bidding will follow.
Really looking forward to seeing how this story ends!" - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
There you have it! Monahan's value has just skyrocketed tonight even though the CH wasn't in action.
