The draft pick conditions in the Sean Monahan trade are absurd
The Calgary Flames made a couple of big moves on Thursday, chiefly the signing of top free agent center Nazem Kadri. To make room for Kadri’s arrival, the team needed to part ways with center Sean Monahan and his sizable contract for the 2022-23 season.
Salary cap space doesn’t come cheap so when the Flames sent Monahan east to the Montreal Canadiens they also had to include a conditional 2025 first-round draft selection.
It turns out that the conditions on that pick are insanely detailed.
