Philadelphia Flyers General Manager Daniel Brière has just made a trade offer that could change everything for the Montreal Canadiens.

Here is our first major concrete piece of information on this draft day.

According to TSN, the Philadelphia Flyers are very insistent on acquiring the 4th overall pick from the Columbus Blue Jackets. Wow.

Daniel Brière has even formally made an offer.

A trade offer from the Philadelphia Flyers to the Columbus Blue Jackets, and it's major for the Montreal Canadiens

Obviously, if Daniel Brière manages to acquire the 4th overall pick, it would be significant for the Canadiens' development and could completely change their plans.

Why? Because according to many, the Flyers want to make this trade to get Ivan Demidov (and draft him just before the Montreal Canadiens' pick).

"According to TSN, the Philadelphia Flyers made an aggressive pitch to the Columbus Blue Jackets. CBJ said no.

To the Flyers: 4th overall pick

To Columbus: 12th overall pick, a roster player, and a 2025 first-round pick.

Note: the Flyers have two first-round picks in 2025." - Mark Scheig

The Blue Jackets have not accepted the Flyers' trade offer yet, but it will obviously be a significant situation to watch.

In any case, things are heating up for the 4th overall pick of Columbus, which is just before Montreal's 5th pick.

"Hello. I woke up to an interesting text from a source in Vegas.

'Today could be an explosive day for Columbus.'

Fans, I guess you should prepare accordingly."

- Mark Scheig

We will keep a close eye on this, as it is major information for the Montreal Canadiens (especially for those hoping to hear Kent Hughes announce Ivan Demidov's name tonight).

Details will follow.
