![Sean Monahan with the Rangers: Renaud Lavoie doesn’t believe in it](https://cdn.buminteractif.com/2024/01/Monahan-784x450.jpg)
When the Montreal Canadiens re-signed Sean Monahan for one year last summer, everyone in Montreal was very happy, especially considering the contract’s value of $1.985 million.
He hasn’t missed a single game this season (despite several days of treatment on training days), which is very good for his value on the market, given that his state of health was something that worried other teams last season.
In short, it’s highly likely that several Stanley Cup contenders will be interested in Monahan’s services.
However, Renaud Lavoie said he simply didn’t believe it.
Well, because according to him, the Habs clearly don’t want to help the Rangers.
“The Rangers, I understand why it’s ‘cute’, but I don’t think there are many people in the Canadiens organization right now who want to help the New York Rangers.” – Renaud Lavoie
First, I understand Renaud Lavoie’s point that former Rangers organization members Jeff Gorton and Nick Brobov certainly won’t be the first to want to help their former team.
If the Rangers are the ones offering the most to the Habs for Monahan, I don’t think Kent Hughes will turn down the offer because it would help the former team of his colleagues Gorton and Brobov.
In short, if it’s the Rangers’ offer that would benefit the Habs the most, that’s the offer that will be accepted, regardless.
On the other hand, if the Rangers’ offer doesn’t suit the Tricolore, even if it’s the best, the Tricolore will keep Monahan and look to re-sign him.
Because no, the Habs won’t trade Monahan at any price.
In this case, it’s better to keep Monahan, because he’s a much better player right now than the youngster drafted in the second round.
Someone said you got to trade him right away because he’s hurting the tank.
For sure. He’s destroying the tank by powering a line all the time.
But the organization isn’t playing that type of tank anymore. They want to be at least in competition for a playoff spot next year.

Personally, I’m torn, because I know that Monahan could bring in a lot of money for the Habs, but at the same time, he’s a veteran who’s doing the Habs proud and who could continue to do so for many years to come.

– Charlie Coyle and Pavel Zacha are doing more than fine.
BOS 1-2 centers, Bergeron and Krejci, combined for 114 points last season.
Here at ASG break, 1-2 centers Coyle/Zacha are on pace for…129 points.

– That’s honest enough.
Made the mistake of asking Luke Richardson what he plans to do during the All-Star break:

– Indeed.
Seriously…
CF Montreal still doesn’t have the right reflexes to sniff out Buzz opportunities.
The fans are excited as rarely with the arrival of a striker despite being little known here in Montreal, and the club plays a Safe Game really too exaggerated.
