We have an interesting development regarding a solid forward well known to hockey fans in Quebec.
According to exclusive information reported by RG Media, Quebecois forward Maxime Comtois is ready to return to the National Hockey League.
He's a talented and intriguing power forward.
"Exclusive report: Maxime Comtois might return to the NHL! After reigniting his passion with Dynamo Moscow, Comtois has multiple offers, including from the Detroit Red Wings."
The Detroit Red Wings have reportedly made a formal offer to Comtois, but nothing is finalized yet!
Do you believe the Montreal Canadiens should do the same and try to acquire Comtois for free with a simple contract offer?
It could even be settled fairly quickly, especially since he doesn't need to wait until July 1st.
