Pierre LeBrun Drops a Bombshell Regarding a Pending Habs Trade
The journalist for The Athletic, Pierre LeBrun, has revealed major information regarding the Montreal Canadiens last night. According to his sources, Carolina Hurricanes' General Manager Don Waddell is closely monitoring the goaltending situation with the Canadiens with the intention of making a trade soon.
It appears that the Hurricanes have identified two potential trade partners, namely the Canadiens (with Jake Allen, Samuel Montembeault, and Cayden Primeau) and the Detroit Red Wings (with Ville Husso, James Reimer, and Alex Lyon) for a potential trade.
This situation arises because their starting goaltender, Frederik Andersen, will be sidelined for an indefinite period due to a blood clot issue. While the team offered a professional tryout to former Canadiens goalie Jaroslav Halak, the Hurricanes are evaluating all available options.
Pierre LeBrun stated, "The Carolina Hurricanes are currently monitoring the goaltending situation with the Detroit Red Wings and the Montreal Canadiens, among others, to see if there is a possibility of a trade."
LeBrun even suggested that it wouldn't be surprising if the Hurricanes announce a trade for a new goaltender in the very near future.
With Frederik Andersen's injury and Jack Campbell being sent down to the American Hockey League, it's likely that Canadiens' General Manager Kent Hughes is actively exploring the trade market to address the goaltending situation.
It will be interesting to see which goaltender from the Canadiens might be the target of one of these two teams. Could Jake Allen be the one?
In any case, this is a developing situation to keep a close eye on in the coming days, and a trade between the Canadiens and the Hurricanes could happen at any moment.
