Mason McTavish's Future Finally Settled After Weeks of Trade Speculation

However, there are now new developments, and we can officially say that the saga is over.

Kent Hughes has been very active since the start of the summer of 2025, making several moves. His most significant move is certainly the acquisition of defenseman Noah Dobson from the New York Islanders.

Unfortunately, the Montreal organization must say goodbye to forward Emil Heineman, who had a strong rookie season in 2025-26 with 10 goals and 18 points in 62 games. Additionally, Hughes also sent two first-round draft picks to New York.

The trade bringing Zachary Bolduc to the Canadiens cannot go unnoticed, while Logan Mailloux is now officially a member of the St. Louis Blues.

This deal between Kent Hughes and Doug Armstrong might not be the last this summer, as Armstrong continues to make forward Jordan Kyrou available-a player that surely interests the Montreal organization.

Attention should also be paid to young forward Marco Rossi, whose future with the Minnesota Wild remains uncertain. Discussions with Bill Guerin do not appear to be progressing at the moment. According to some reports, the two sides are still far from agreeing on a new contract, and all signs indicate Rossi may not attend training camp.

In addition to Jordan Kyrou and Marco Rossi, Mason McTavish's name was heavily involved in the rumors, and the young Ducks forward was making some Montreal Canadiens fans dream.

However, it is now over! On BPM Sports, Marco D'Amico is clear: even though McTavish would be an excellent addition for the Canadiens, he is not available on the trade market.

We can therefore say that the case is now closed!
