The Calgary Flames have made a huge trade offer to Kent Hughes and the Canadiens
According to the well-connected Anthony Di Marco, the Calgary Flames have indeed made a major trade offer to Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens.
Here is his exact post:
«I'm told that the Calgary Flames have made an offer to Montreal for the 5th overall pick. The asking price is too high at the moment, coming from the Montreal Canadiens.» - Anthony Di Marco
Wow. Things are really heating up behind the scenes!
If you were in Kent Hughes' position, what would you ask for in exchange for the 5th overall pick, which seems likely to become Ivan Demidov?
Calgary Flames Attempting to Close a Deal with the Montreal Canadiens for the 5th Overall Pick
Let's remember that the Flames hold the 9th overall pick tonight, so by making such a trade, Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton would be moving back four spots.
It would be a trade involving the 5th and 9th overall picks, according to all indications.
We've also just learned that Calgary is currently trying to trade center Nazem Kadri, who scored 75 points this season with the Flames, but I would be surprised if he is a target for Montreal.
This is a big story to follow, in any case!
The Flames also have interesting young names on attack, such as Samuel Honzek, Matt Coronato, Connor Zary, and Jakob Pelletier.
We'll have our answers in a few hours.
