The Canadiens made a move today, and even though it's an AHL-level transaction, it makes a lot of sense. Nothing is done by chance.

Stanley25, JT Utah, and Max Truman discussed during a recent podcast episode how Kent Hughes prefers to acquire Quebec players in certain transactions.

«Source: At equal contracts, the Canadiens prefer to pick up a Hometown player.

This helps explain the transaction that brought Jacob Perreault into the organization this morning.»



It's very interesting to learn this about the organization. It means that when trading four quarters for a dollar, Hughes will always favor acquiring a local player, as seen with the Rocket de Laval, which has several Hometown players.
