The Montreal Canadiens' training camp is approaching, and according to journalist Eric Engels, the performances of young defensemen Logan Mailloux and David Reinbacher could impact David Savard's future.

If these two prospects manage to secure a spot on the team, the veteran from Quebec could be traded sooner than expected, as he's in the final year of his contract.
Engels notes that despite Savard's desire to remain with the Canadiens, he understands that the team must make room for younger players to develop.
With his experience and profile as a reliable defenseman, Savard would be a prime target for several teams seeking reinforcements. However, the decision will depend on Mailloux's and Reinbacher's performances at camp.
Kent Hughes may be forced to trade Savard if they stand out. Time will tell if a trade happens before the start of the season or at the trade deadline.
