A simplified explanation of the Canadiens-Monahan trade condition
Courtesy of a Discord user:


 * 2024: CGY's 1st is top-19 protected. If CGY's pick is within top 19, MTL's pick shifts to 2025. (this already happened)
 * 2025a: If CGY receives FLA's 2025 1st, MTL gets the better of the two. Both are top-10 protected.
 * If one is top-10 and the other is not, MTL gets the non-top-10 pick.
 * If both are top 10, MTL's pick shifts to 2026.


 * 2025b: If CGY does NOT receive FLA's 2025 1st, CGY's is top-1 protected. If CGY gets #1 overall, MTL's pick shifts to 2026.
 * 2026: MTL gets the better of CGY or FLA's 1sts (2025a), or just CGY's 1st (2025b).

@Deadman137, figure may be worth having this to refer back to whenever this nightmare of a condition wraps itself up. The  Kip  (contribs) 09:07, 22 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Close, if Florida is in top ten selections that pick goes to 2026 as Calgary could not receive it in 2025. In this scenario if Calgary picks first overall they then send their third in 2025 to Montreal and then the two 2026 firsts are in play. Basically Florida getting into the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs makes this nightmare conditional trade very simple, otherwise this discussion will be needed. Deadman137 (talk) 18:24, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
