Following the acquisition of goalie Casey DeSmith by the Montreal Canadiens, many experts believe that it hides another transaction involving a goaltender.
Will DeSmith leave? Will Jake Allen leave?
On this subject, in the past few hours, former Montreal Canadiens player and popular host, Georges Laraque, made a major statement.
According to him, no team will be interested in acquiring Allen, which would obviously complicate a potential trade.

And what do you think, would Kent Hughes be able to find a taker for Allen if he decides to trade him?
We believe so. He is a solid veteran, with a reasonable salary and is capable of very strong performances.
Allen, 33 years old, has 183 career wins in the NHL, an average of 2.70, and a save percentage of 0.910.
