Since the end of the season, the eyes of Montreal Canadiens fans have been on the next draft, in which the Habs will be ranked fifth.
While some thought the Canadian’s priority was to extend the young striker’s contract Juraj Slafkovskywe should rather expect movement at the transaction level.
In fact, going through the show Sports fans At 98.5FM animated by Mario Langloisthe radio station commentator Martin McGuire revealed the latest information he had heard from the Director General of CH Kent Hughes.
I don’t get the impression that there are any really urgent contracts, including Juraj Slafkovsky’s. General Manager Kent Hughes is very active right now. Kent Hughes is on the phone. He’s talking to a lot of people. He’s trying to improve the team, improve draft assets and move players. We find him to be very active.

We can think about it Kirby Roof or to Alex NewhookSo if a young player who still has potential becomes available, it would be no surprise to see Hughes pull the trigger. At the end of the season, he stated that he wanted to improve his attack.
We know we need to add offensive talent.
