A huge transaction announced at the Montreal draft?

Some teams may take advantage of this opportunity to make a splash. For example, the New Jersey Devils would be open to trading the second overall pick. However, as my colleagues at Fanadiens.com report, we could also see a Canadian team attempt a real home run when the first round is presented.

According to Bruce Garrioch, columnist for the Ottawa Sun, the Ottawa Senators, who have the seventh overall pick, are reportedly very interested in bringing an impact forward to the roster, and Kevin Fiala's name has been circulating a lot lately.

Senators GM Pierre Dorion would even be open to trading his first round pick to bring in the Minnesota Wild
forward, but the price to acquire him could be very high.

Fiala, who had a career-best 85-point season this year, will be a compensated free agent, but because of the Wild's financial constraints, it would be nearly impossible to keep his services in Minnesota. Even Wild general manager Bill Guerin has said it will be difficult to keep Fiala on his roster.

But if the Senators want to acquire Fiala, they'll have to be pretty aggressive, because according to Garrioch, the New Jersey Devils are also very interested. With the second overall pick, they are already well ahead of the game.

Who do you think would win the next trade?

To MINNESOTA: 7th overall pick (and possibly an addition).
