A few weeks ago, Pierre LeBrun had disclosed very important information regarding the trade market in the NHL this season. Although there had been no official announcement at that time, the TSN analyst indicated that the trade deadline would be set for March 8, 2024.
In this regard, in the last few minutes, Chris Johnston has confirmed the rumor, indicating that the trade deadline will indeed be on March 8th at 3:00 PM.
This day will be of great significance for the fans of the Montreal Canadiens, as well as for the general manager, Kent Hughes, as it could mark the departure of some veterans such as Sean Monahan, Josh Anderson, and David Savard.
Given the organization's desire to perform starting next season, crucial decisions will need to be made regarding the future of several players, and it is quite possible that we will witness several transactions for the Tricolore.
