Arber Xhekaj traded by the Canadiens and major offer received: Renaud Lavoie surprises and announces to the fans that it is not true
This is very surprising, especially knowing that Renaud Lavoie usually likes to talk about trade rumors of this kind, but he just denied a big one.
Earlier this week, the renowned David Pagnotta, who was notably the first to announce Patrick Roy's hiring by the New York Islanders, revealed this.
"Teams have not only called the Montreal Canadiens about defensemen Arber Xhekaj, but some have also presented concrete offers.
In fact, it is learned that the Canadiens received an offer for a young NHL forward, a former first-round pick, with second-line potential. Montreal refused." - David Pagnotta This had caused a lot of buzz.
Renaud Lavoie denies this information regarding a transaction involving Arber Xhekaj
On the airwaves of TVA Sports, the reporter was categorical!
"Lavoie on TVA Sports advises people not to listen to the latest trade rumor involving Arber Xhekaj (about the exceptional 1vs1 offer)." - Marc Dumont
So, he directly contradicts David Pagnotta.
At this point, we must rely on the reporter we find most credible, and it's up to you to make up your own mind.
For our part, we had suggested that the offer in question could possibly include Morgan Frost of the Philadelphia Flyers.
