Imminent trade between the Canadiens and the Jets?

The club's draft picks could also be used in negotiations. Mathias Brunet mentioned on BPM Sports the Jets as a logical option, especially after the recent transaction involving Sean Monahan, thus establishing a connection between the two general managers.

While this doesn't guarantee a trade, this relationship is significant in the league. The Jets, in need of defensemen, also have promising young talents in attack.

Among them, Rutger McGroarty, who surprised by choosing to return to university despite a dominant season in the NCAA. His desire to stay in Winnipeg is in question, potentially leading to a trade request, similar to Cutter Gauthier.

Colby Barlow and Brad Lambert are also generating buzz at the Jets.

In summary, both teams have assets that could benefit the other, and with the already established relationship between Cheveldayoff and Hughes, a deal seems plausible, especially considering the Jets' defense is not at its highest level.
