Frank Seravalli reveals a possible major trade between the Canadiens and the Penguins

Insider Frank Seravalli recently released a list of 25 players who could very possibly change their address between now and the NHL draft, which will take place in early July in Montreal.

On this list, we find three players of the Habs, Shea Weber, in fact, his contract, Josh Anderson and without surprise, a certain Jeff Petry. His name has been circulating in trade rumors for several months and the chances of him starting the season with another team are very good.

The Dallas Stars have regularly come back into the discussion, especially because of the contractual situation of their defenseman John Klingberg, but according to Olivier Paiement of Danslescoulisses.com, another team interested in the Canadiens' number 26 could be added.


In his article on Dailyfaceoff, Seravalli suggests that the Pittsburgh Penguins would have their eye on Petry, should they be unable to reach an agreement with Kristopher Letang.


As we know, Letang's situation in Pittsburgh is making headlines across the NHL and the Penguins are at a crossroads regarding Letang's situation and also Evgeni Malkin's, who are both uncompensated free agents this summer.

But in order for a deal to happen on Jeff Petry, Kent Hughes needs to make sure he gets maximum value, which could be more difficult than expected, especially with him still under contract for three seasons at $6.25 million a year.

This will definitely be one of the most interesting files to follow during the off-season for the Habs, who should not be short of action.
