Two Canadiens Players Pulled From Lineup Due to Trade? We Now Have the Answer
We have news from the Montreal Canadiens as we approach the famous trade deadline. We are now at that time of the season when several players are removed from their team's lineup "for reasons related to an upcoming trade."
It's always interesting to keep an eye on.
Indeed, we have our first player of the season who has been scratched from his team's lineup due to an upcoming trade.
"Nashville and Minnesota are discussing a potential trade for Gustav Nyquist, according to some sources, which explains why he is sidelined today.
But the trade is still not finalized. Let's see where this leads us."

The next question is as follows.
Will Montreal Canadiens players like Jake Evans and/or Joel Armia be sidelined for the same reasons?
We have our answer regarding this option.
According to David Calabretta of The Fourth Period, this is not expected to happen.
"I wouldn't expect Montreal to be one of those teams "benching" Evans or Armia for trade related purposes. Something to keep an eye on."

Of course, we will keep you updated if anything changes, but for now, that's the situation.
Additionally, it should be noted that Armia and Evans' names have recently been linked to the Minnesota Wild, so I wonder if the potential acquisition of Gustav Nyquist by the Wild could impact the Canadiens.
A situation to watch.
