As we reported earlier this evening, the Montreal Canadiens have completed an important trade with the Vegas Golden Knights.
Many fans were puzzled by the trade, especially because it adds (another) winger who costs more than $5 million on the payroll.
So what is the plan here?
Well, according to many observers, this transaction announces another trade to come for the Montreal Canadiens, and it is indeed logical to think that.
Let me share my opinion with you. Dadonov's arrival will surely allow Kent to trade one of his main wingers in another trade in the near future. To be continued....." - David Ettedgui
So we should indeed expect another winger to bail out:
"Adding $5,000,000 in real payroll impact doesn't make sense for the #CH right now. I do feel like Dadonov's arrival, if he stays with the team this season, will result in another short-term trade. Drouin? Byron? Hoffman? To be continued! #Habs" - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
Which one would you trade first? Jonathan Drouin, Paul Byron, Mike Hoffman or Josh Anderson?
