Insider Pierre LeBrun Reveals New Details on a Potential Trade Involving David Savard and Christian Dvorak
Renowned insider Pierre LeBrun has just shared new information on BPM Sports regarding a potential trade involving pending free agents.
In recent years, it has become a tradition as the holiday season and the NHL trade deadline approach, with speculation building around upcoming trades involving players whose contracts expire at the end of the season.
We've seen this with players like Ben Chiarot, Brett Kulak, Sean Monahan, and many others.
This year, the names that fit this description include Christian Dvorak, Joel Armia, Jake Evans, Michael Pezzetta, and David Savard.
The two attracting the most attention in trade rumors are Dvorak and Savard, but even with them, things could play out quite differently.
Trade discussion by experts involving names like David Savard or Christian Dvorak: Pierre LeBrun shares updates
Appearing on BPM Sports just moments ago, the respected insider noted that, unlike in previous seasons, all signs indicate that the Montreal Canadiens' players who will become unrestricted free agents (UFA) next summer won't necessarily be traded before the deadline.
In short, for the first time in several years, Kent Hughes may not be a seller at the trade deadline.
«The Canadiens would have to be really low in the standings to be sellers. We're going to want to keep our guys even if the odds are slim.
The Canadiens have already stocked up on draft picks!»

It appears Kent Hughes has decided not to be a seller this year, barring a major downturn in the standings in the coming weeks.
Do you think this is the right decision by the Montreal Canadiens' general manager?
More details to follow.
