Lehkonen to New York? Dvorak to Calgary? Drouin to Colorado? Here are some trade proposals for the Habs

While it's pretty quiet right now for the Montreal Canadiens on the day of the NHL trade deadline, we wanted to take a look at a few trade proposals made by fans and analyzed by the excellent Marc-Olivier Beaudoin.

With the departures of Tyler Toffoli and Ben Chiarot, many field hockey fans are wondering who will be the next player to be traded by Kent Hughes in the coming hours.

For the occasion, Marc-Olivier Beaudoin, of Danslescoulisses.com, asked Internet users to suggest some potential trades that the Habs could make between now and 3 p.m.

Here are some of them.


- Mike Hoffman to Pittsburgh for Kasperi Kapanen

We had told you about this possibility of the Penguins forward joining the Habs. Several sources say he would be on his way out of Pittsburgh and on top of that, his brother, Oliver, was drafted by the CH in 2021 and a change of scenery could do him good. As for Hoffman, he could be a great option for the Penguins' power play.


- Artturi Lehkonen to the Rangers in return for Nils Lundkvist and a third round pick

Lehkonen's name has often been linked to the Rangers in recent weeks, and according to several pundits, Kent Hughes could get a first round pick for his services. I have to admit that this proposal makes sense because Lundkvist was selected by Jeff Gorton and the Habs have already acquired two first round picks in the Chiarot and Toffoli trades.

- Christian Dvorak to Calgary for Sean Monahan
