Kent Hughes tempted to trade Mike Matheson?

Obviously, he liked the idea.

Matheson, who expresses his attachment to Montreal, clearly understands his importance to the team.

It's unlikely that Hutson will take Matheson's playing time as of October 2024. While there are speculations surrounding David Savard, Matheson remains a separate topic. However, his departure would require an exceptional offer, as emphasized by Kent Hughes.

In Tony Marinaro's Sick Podcast, Eric Engels of Sportsnet stated that if Matheson were traded, it would be a win for the Canadiens, suggesting that such a scenario is unlikely.

To progress, the Canadiens rely on Matheson, and any trade should be very advantageous.

His presence for the upcoming season seems assured, but his situation could evolve in the final year of his contract in 2026.
