“Habs forward Sean Monahan is on a 1 year contract that carries a $1.985M cap hit, and a $15K PB which has already been earned. Monahan’s remaining cap hit if traded today is $785,729 and will be UFA in July.”
No official word on what the Jets would be sending back to the Habs yet but Darren Dreger of TSN is reporting it is a 1st and a conditional 3rd round pick in 2027 if the Jets win the Stanley Cup.
