His career-high 34 goals and 82 points came in the 2018-19 season, and since then his game has fallen off.
He has one season remaining on a seven-year, $44.62 million contract which was initially signed in 2016. His cap hit for the upcoming season is $6.375 million.
Here's last seasons advanced stats for Monahan, who had a lackluster performance. Putting up 8 goals and 23 points in 65 games.
Going to Montreal would be a great shake-up for the centerman looking to rejuvenate his NHL career with a new team.
Over the length of his 9-year career with the Flames, Monahan had 212 goals and 462 points in 656 games.
More to come.
