Renaud Lavoie has just reported a development concerning Sean Monahan

"Big development in the Sean Monahan file!"

- TVA Sports

"We thought we could trade Sean Monahan. It's the same thing for Joel Edmundson. He has one year left on his contract, but he's on the list of players the Canadiens were willing to trade this year. We are talking about two players who are still injured as we speak. At the Canadiens' management, we don't know if we're going to be able to trade them."

"If they're hurt, you can do it, but you're going to have to put some conditions on the deal. It might be a little more complicated than it was originally supposed to be. The return won't be as huge for an injured player as for a healthy one. It's a real headache for Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton."
