Last night on 98.5 Sports, Montreal Canadiens game writer Martin McGuire revealed a major piece of information regarding the next contract of young Cole Caufield.
According to what he revealed, the Caufield clan (his agent Pat Brisson) and the Montreal Canadiens have officially begun negotiations for a new contract extension.
Solid! Here we go!
As my colleague Alex Desrosiers reports, according to McGuire's source, the two parties have not set a timeline with the goal of reaching an agreement. So an announcement is not necessarily imminent, but talks are well underway.
Caufield, 21, has 12 goals and 21 points in 22 games this season.
For details:
Recall what journalists Marc Antoine Godin and Arpon Basu of The Athletic mentioned just recently about possible comparisons:
So there would be a few options on the table, some of them very expensive, but Caufield deserves it.
