The goaltending situation is becoming more and more talked about with the Montreal Canadiens.
Samuel Montembeault and Jakub Dobes have completely lost confidence, and unfortunately it's starting to cost them in the NHL standings.
Even if Montembeault is trying certain things, it just doesn't seem to be working.
Anyway, we have just obtained some very interesting information!
The very reputable Elliotte Friedman has just linked the name of goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to the Montreal Canadiens via trade
We remind you that the Buffalo Sabres are currently running with three goalies (a three-goalie rotation between Luukkonen, Colten Ellis, and Alex Lyon).
Everything indicates that they will be trading one, and according to Elliotte Friedman the most interesting one to watch is Luukkonen!

Do you believe Kent Hughes needs to make a move and acquire a new goalie?
Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, 26 years old, is a Finnish goaltender standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 223 pounds, drafted in the 2nd round by the Buffalo Sabres in 2017.
In his NHL career (with the Sabres), he has a positive record of 72-67-16, with a goals-against average of 3.05 and a save percentage of .898.
Do you think this would be a good acquisition for the Montreal Canadiens?
