The Blue Jackets have agreed to terms with Sean Monahan, five years x $5.5 M AAV per season. Reunion with Johnny Gaudreau



Johnny and Monny reunited. Would have loved to see Monahan back as a Flame but that is a lot of money

    Get your bag Monny, maybe you can revive the ghost of Johnny Gaudreau.

    I love Monahan but would not give him a 5 year deal.

    Good for Monahan.

    Also glad Conroy’s keeping his word so far and not giving out longterm deals.

    Johnny bout to get his mojo back Austin Powers style

    Edit to add: I’ll be a fucking tear soaked mess if they go on some playoff runs and have success together over there. I couldn’t handle seeing a tunnel hug in fucking Columbus jerseys…

    Damn, that’s a *haul* for a guy who’s injury troubles had him on the ropes two seasons ago. Fuckin’ A, Mony.

    Not sure what I think of this. Monahan and Gaudreau worked really well together when Monahan had his scoring touch. That has faded over the last several years. I still think they’ll do well together, but I don’t think Monahan is going to be more than a 20 goal, 50 point center. Gaudreau around 65-70 points again as well.

    Granted, this can change depending on who their RW is. Healthy Laine, if they keep him, could mesh really well.

    I see you CBJ…

    Can I copy your homework?

    Yeah just change it up a bit, so it doesn’t look obvious.

    Given his rebound last season 5.5 mil for this year would be a fair “prove it” contract if he’s back to health.

    But for five years? Into his mid 30s? With his injury history?

    Happy for him, and him and Johnny back together is kinda cool, but I’m happy we didn’t give out that deal, even though I wanted him back.

    5 year deal for an injury prone player is a risk

    I messaged Paul Byron and asked if he likes to eat toast for breakfast and he said he does.

    Signing him here would have been moving in reverse

  12. Good for Mony. I would be scratching my head as a blue jackets fan

    As a Jets fan as well I was ecstatic when the Jets got him. Now I have a reason to cheer for columbus with the sweet johnny hockey and monny combo! Flames are smart not to sign anyone in FA to long term deals, give the young stars a chance to sign and work towards a small rebuild (Will nowhere be near sharks, blackhawks or ducks)

    Massive fan of sharangoalvich and well deserved contract for him. Mantha was a good value pick and if he does well the flames can flip him for profit at the trade deadline.

    Damn, good for Mony! Looked like he was on his way to an early retirement for a minute. Nice bag for the kid.

    Colombian pure up 1323% da boys are back in town!

    I’m not a Columbus fan so I love this SO much. Monahan is my favourite, I was devastated to see him traded with a first only to bring another first being traded out. Gets his bag with his bestie, all the best moneyhands

    5×5.5 that’s going to be a buy out in two to three years

    These guys love finishing hockey mid April. Good for them for being honest
