The Canadiens involved in a three-team trade?

Considered an ideal player for Martin St-Louis's top-6, Necas remains out of reach for the Habs, who seem to lack the necessary assets to strike a deal with the Carolina Hurricanes.

The Hurricanes' aim is to acquire a top-tier goalie or an established player, making a direct transaction with the CH challenging.

However, a three-team option, discussed by Marc Antoine Godin on Radio-Canada, could provide a solution.

Let's remember, Kent Hughes LOVES this kind of transaction.

He could utilize the Canadiens' resources, including promising prospects and first-round picks, to attract a goalie like Jacob Markstrom from the Calgary Flames, then trade him to the Hurricanes in exchange for Necas.

This strategy demands creativity, but if successful, it could enable the Montreal Canadiens to make a significant move before the draft.
