Kent Hughes reveals another offer Calgary Flames made to him for Tyler Toffoli
A few days ago, when the Canadiens traded Tyler Toffoli to the Flames in exchange for Tyler Pitlick, a first-round pick, another fifth in 2024 and prospect Emil Heineman, many hockey fans must have wondered who was this intriguing Swedish prospect.
As the latter had already been involved in a trade last year at the trade deadline, some Habs fans have expressed doubts about his potential.
Kent Hughes met with the media on Wednesday and he added more details regarding this transaction with the Flames :
This is enough to reassure hockey fans about the real potential that Heineman could bring to the Canadians.
But what is really interesting in all of this is that the new Habs staff is looking more for young prospects (already drafted) than draft picks, in order to speed up the process of rebuilding the team.
Which bodes very well for the future.
