We've been telling you about it for the past few hours, there's been more and more talk about a possible trade involving Montreal Canadiens goalie Jake Allen, and Kevin Weekes has some news:
"** Keep an eye on this**
Veteran G Jake Allen (of the Canadiens) is still getting strong interest in the market. @EdmontonOilers, @BuffaloSabres are among the clubs in the race. [...]" - Kevin Weekes of NHL Network and ESPN
So, according to information from reputable insider Kevin Weekes, Kent Hughes and the Canadiens are reportedly in intense talks to possibly trade goalie Jake Allen.
An announcement could come as early as today or over the weekend.
This is something to watch very closely. This morning, Weekes also said that the Washington Capitals (who have Ilya Samsonov) are interested, and they just traded a goalie (Vitek Vanecek) to the New Jersey Devils, so they definitely need another masked man now.
So don't be surprised if, after Alexander Romanov yesterday, Jake Allen is traded soon.
Watch closely. What would you do if you were in Kent Hughes' shoes?
