Huge trade rumor between Habs and Canucks involving Brock Boeser

The Habs have too many forwards who are tourists in the organization. These players are not keeping up with the pace and are no longer part of the team's plans. However, it is almost impossible for Kent Hughes to trade them and he will have to wait until the end of their contract, for most of them.

Of those players, Joel Armia got his first point of the season on Saturday night, in his 13th game of the season. That's not nearly enough for a player paid 3.4 million.

On the Canucks side, there is also an unloved player who is not in the good graces of his coach and is available on the market.

An observer took the opportunity to launch a rumour about the possibility of the Canadiens and the Canucks trading a problem. According to this rumour, Brock Boeser would head to Montreal in exchange for Joel Armia and a third round pick.



Boeser is far superior to Armia, but his hefty $6.65 million contract will be difficult for the Canucks GM to trade. As for Armia, he brings a different dimension to the team than Boeser, especially in terms of his defensive game, which could help Bruce Boudreau's team.
