Journalist Jimmy Murphy published a very interesting article in the last few hours regarding the Montreal Canadiens and the Boston Bruins.
We mentioned it to you very recently, but he specifically confirms that Kent Hughes contacted the Bruins' GM about a trade involving the 6-foot-3 centerman, Pavel Zacha.
But that's not all.
In his article, there are also two very interesting passages about defenseman Jayden Struble.
The Boston Bruins like Jayden Struble "a lot": he would be involved in a trade between the Montreal Canadiens and the Bruins
Indeed, if the Habs were to come to an agreement with the Bruins for a trade, everything indicates that Struble would indeed be involved.
Here are the two passages in question.
"It should be noted that RG has already heard Struble's name linked to the Boston Bruins." - Jimmy Murphy
All the details are in his full article, but Murphy also reports the comments of a second solid NHL source, who confirms that he "knows the Bruins like Struble a lot, but that it would take more than just Struble in order to trade for Zacha."
This source therefore also confirms that Jayden Struble would be involved in the trade with Boston (as a starting point), but that other pieces would need to be added on Kent Hughes' side.
This will be a fascinating case to follow!
