Journalist Nicolas Cloutier, who predicted Kent Hughes' last trade almost to the exact detail, strikes again. This time, his focus is on Boston.
Those who, like me, spent all of last week reading the buzz around the Carey Price trade, noticed the astonishing accuracy of TVA Sports journalist Nicolas Cloutier's prediction.
In short, hats off to Nicolas Cloutier, who strikes again by identifying a target that would make a lot of sense for Kent Hughes in his search for a center.
After predicting the Carey Price trade in detail, the journalist names a Bruins player as Kent Hughes' next target
Once again, Nicolas Cloutier does not claim to have a crystal ball, nor does he pretend to have insider information. But here's what he had to say about Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens' pursuit of a second-line center:
"Very curious about the Bruins' plans with center Pavel Zacha. There could be a McKenna effect this season with teams moving to seller mode faster if they have a poor start. $4.75M, unrestricted free agent in 2027."
This observation aligns with recent rumors about Zacha and the Canadiens. Just yesterday, we also mentioned Pavel Zacha in a piece identifying two centers Kent Hughes could realistically pursue.
We can't wait to see what the Habs' GM has in store for us!
