The Montreal Canadiens are about to face the Islanders, live from New York, in a few minutes. Andrew Hammond will be in net for the Habs, and he will face the excellent Ilya Sorokin.
With the trade deadline fast approaching, and as the rumors escalate, reporters are looking for signals of an upcoming trade, and we have a good one right now:
«Joe Sakic, the GM of the Colorado Avalanche, will watch the game between the CH and the Islanders at UBS Arena." -J-F Chaumont
DG Sakic is there, in person.
As you know, defenseman Ben Chiarot could be traded at any minute, and among the teams interested, there is the Colorado Avalanche. Well well.
And Joe Sakic has surprisingly publicly revealed the two elements that he would be ready to trade, for the right defender, for the right trade.
Here they are, two elements that Kent Hughes could target in a trade with Colorado: Justin Barron and a 2023 first round pick.
