David Pagnotta confirms that Kent Hughes is active in the trade market and is trying to finalize a significant trade
See his exact statement.
«Kent Hughes is engaged in conversations [with teams in the trade market], and he is somewhat exploring the proven top-6 NHL forwards that are available. He is focusing on wingers and wants to add more goals to this lineup, which is why we are hearing all these speculations about Martin Necas and Trevor Zegras.»
- David Pagnotta, via HabsOnReddit We can also add to these names that of young Rutger McGroarty, and that of Cole Eiserman, who is set to meet with the Montreal Canadiens' management today (which is causing a lot of buzz).
Do not rule out the possibility of seeing Kent Hughes finalize a trade to add another top-15 pick to draft Eiserman.
He wants to add goals to the Canadiens' lineup? Well, Eiserman is THE best goal scorer of the 2024 draft.
