Juraj Slafkovsky and Brady Tkachuk played crucial roles for the Montreal Canadiens and the Ottawa Senators this season.
They are two very talented young wingers, among the best in the NHL.
In the last few hours, on the airwaves of 98.5 Sports, former Montreal Canadiens goaltending coach Stéphane Waite addressed a rather surprising topic regarding them.
Which one would he choose first? Although they know such a transaction will never happen, they discussed it for the sake of debate and entertainment for their listeners.
The Senators will never have to ask themselves this question because Kent Hughes will never do it and will never propose such a trade, but we agree with Waite on this point.
Stéphane Waite wouldn't be willing to part with Juraj Slafkovsky to acquire Brady Tkachuk.
This proposal would be "a red flag" from Ottawa:
"I believe Slafkovsky will become a better overall player"
