Trade rumors are rare early in the season, for obvious reasons, but this one is a solid lead.
Seravalli has revealed that the Flames are looking for a center, possibly for the third line, and one who is reliable in the faceoff circle.
Is this finally the opportunity that Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens have been waiting for?
Their general manager is currently working to finalize a trade.
Knowing that Calgary and Montreal have completed a few trades together in recent years, do you think Kent Hughes should seize this chance and try to trade Dvorak?
In his comments, Seravalli indeed mentions that GM Craig Conroy has been active on the phone for a few days, aiming to acquire a «middle-6» center via trade.
They also seem to be targeting a player between 27 and 31 years old.
Christian Dvorak, who is 28, has accumulated 217 points in 457 career games in the National Hockey League.
Do you think he could be an option for the Calgary Flames? What is his value on the trade market?
This is a possibility to keep in mind, especially if Hughes is willing to retain part of his salary ($4.45 million per year until the end of the 2024-2025 season) to facilitate the deal.
More details to follow.
