In this episode, we recap the NHL Trade Deadline and discuss whether the Montreal Canadiens did well by not overpaying — or if the lack of moves was disappointing.
According to insiders, members of media, and Kent Hughes himself, the Canadiens were close to completing a big trade. Apparently, had the crossed the finish line, it would have been a “fall-off-your-chair” blockbuster. Some insiders believe the deal involved the Toronto Maple Leafs and Matthew Knies — but it ultimately didn’t cross the finish line. Hughes also suggested the team could revisit the trade this summer. Was it really Knies, or someone else?
We also discuss the goaltending situation. With Samuel Montembeault struggling with consistency, is it time to give Jacob Fowler another opportunity in Montreal?
And finally — should the Canadiens try Kirby Dach at 2C… again?
