On the airwaves of BPM Sports, journalist Renaud Lavoie delighted many fans, including, of course, those of the Montreal Canadiens.
Amidst numerous rumors and speculations, Renaud Lavoie believes that we will finally have something concrete soon, and he thinks that trades will be announced this week in the NHL.
Given that the 2024 draft is in about ten days, it makes perfect sense! And as soon as the first trade is announced, the others will follow, as always.
