Since the major transaction between three teams announced yesterday, notably bringing Jeff Petry back with the Montreal Canadiens, many observers are already speculating about a possible new trade involving Petry.

Petry already on his way out of Montreal?

Some are even outright convinced that he will be traded before the start of the season.

«This just confirms what we were saying with AGN45, surely Jeff Petry will not start the season in Montreal.» - Habs Fan TV

And indeed, in the last few minutes, interesting information has surfaced:

«And according to good sources, the Canadiens do not plan to hold a press conference for Jeff Petry or Kent Hughes.» - Max Truman

Wow! That says a lot, and it would confirm that Petry does not seem to be in the plans of the CH.

He goes even further:

I would go even further: I don't see him playing golf in mid-September with the Canadiens Children's Foundation either lol. - Max Truman

In short, stay tuned, but don't be surprised if the veteran defender has already played his last game with the Habs.

In closing, to add another layer, let's mention that the Canadiens did not make any announcement to highlight Petry's return, which is very unusual for an organization that pays attention to such details.
