Kent Hughes is Actively Working to Trade Two Veterans According to Insider Chris Johnston


For several days now, numerous NHL insiders have been weighing in on the work Kent Hughes and the Canadiens are doing in the trade market right now.

At this point, we’re not talking about rumors but rather solid, confirmed information when we say the Habs’ GM is working to finalize a trade.

Literally all the top insiders have confirmed it, including Frank Seravalli, Elliotte Friedman, Darren Dreger, and even Pierre LeBrun.

 

 

 

In short, this is solid.

Now that we know Kent Hughes wants to add a gritty forward and a right-shot defenseman, the next question is:

Which player is Kent Hughes shopping on the trade market?

Well, according to these same sources, we’re indeed talking about two veteran forwards: Christian Dvorak and Joel Armia.

I’m not surprised to hear some teams are interested in Armia, who played well last season, has an intriguing skill set, and a strong playoff history. But in Dvorak’s case, it’ll be interesting to watch.

After all, Christian Dvorak ranks 6th among the players most likely to be traded soon, according to the reputable Chris Johnston.

The fact that many teams want center reinforcements, and that very few centers are available, will certainly help Kent Hughes and the Canadiens in their attempt to trade Dvorak.

In any case, they’re working on it and seem to have a shot.

He’d be a natural fit on the third or fourth line of a Stanley Cup-contending team, according to Johnston.

And if you were in Kent Hughes’ shoes, would you trade names like Dvorak and Armia?
