Craig Button makes a major statement regarding a Mike Matheson possible trade
Regarding a trade involving Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mike Matheson, TSN expert Craig Button has made a major statement.
As you know, in recent weeks, Matheson has been involved in numerous trade rumors, notably with the Carolina Hurricanes (for forward Martin Necas).
Some analysts believe it would make sense to trade Matheson, firstly because Lane Hutson or Logan Mailloux could take his place, but also because he will clearly no longer be in his prime when Montreal aims for the Stanley Cup.
Should Kent Hughes trade Mike Matheson at a very high price right now? Or should he keep him?
It is true that Matheson's trade value is immense right now, and it may never be as high again.
On this subject, TSN expert Craig Button made a very clear statement.
