After a very difficult start to the season, we can say that things are getting back on track for the Edmonton Oilers.

Connor McDavid's team has won 10 of their last 13 games, but the goaltending situation continues to be a topic of discussion in Alberta.
Stuart Skinner has had his ups and downs since the beginning of the season, and it's not the first time it's been mentioned that the Oilers need reinforcements in net.

Speaking of a goaltending situation that has also been much talked about since the beginning of the season, there's the one at the Montreal Canadiens.

Despite the fact that the three goalies, Samuel Montembeault, Jake Allen, and Cayden Primeau, are being used on a regular basis, it would be surprising if this situation continues, and sooner or later, Kent Hughes will have to make a move.

That said, as reported by Cédrick Gervais from Marqueur.com, the option for the GM of the Canadiens and his counterpart from the Oilers, Ken Holland, to make a trade was brought up by a user, and let's say it could make sense.

Via his account X, Bob Task proposed that the Canadiens trade Cayden Primeau to the Oilers in return for Quebec forward Raphaël Lavoie.

I want to clarify here that this is a suggestion and not a founded rumor, but the idea of bringing Lavoie to Montreal has already been mentioned, and despite the fact that he has played a few games with the big club this year, it is becoming increasingly difficult for him to establish himself in the NHL.

As for Primeau, with the contract that Samuel Montembeault received in recent weeks, it seems clear that he will have to settle for a backup role with the Canadiens in the coming years.

I still doubt that this trade will materialize, but with Kent Hughes, a surprise is never out of the question.
