Seth Jones Publicly Demands Trade: Hughes and the Canadiens Could Take Advantage
Last night, after another loss for his team, Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Seth Jones had a lot to say. He sent a clear message to his management, and as Georges Laraque mentioned on BPM Sports earlier today, this is an interesting trade target for the Montreal Canadiens.
Could Kent Hughes make a smart move by targeting Jones?
I sincerely believe so.
In the past few hours, Seth Jones has openly sent a message confirming that he would like to be traded.
Seth Jones says he's talking with the Blackhawks about the possibility of a trade.
"I would like to give myself a chance to win in my career. I know that the money is not an easy thing to move, and that's what we're figuring out."
And following his post-game comments, everything indicates that he will likely be traded within a few days.
