Jeff Gorton Confirms Canadiens Aren't Done Yet After Dobson and Bolduc Trades
The Canadiens have made strong moves this offseason, but as many suspected, Jeff Gorton just confirmed they're not done yet and more trades could be coming.
The Canadiens' Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations has opened the door to a potential new trade that could soon be announced by the organization, and he all but confirmed that they are currently working hard on the phones.
That lines up exactly with the current rumors.
In an interview with Marc Antoine Godin of Radio-Canada, we learn that Jeff Gorton expects a surge in NHL activity before training camps begin.
In the interview, he also opens the door to a new trade that could soon be announced by the Habs. Interesting!
Jeff Gorton comments on a possible new Canadiens trade
Of course, Gorton doesn't guarantee 100% that the Canadiens will announce another trade in the coming days, but let's just say he dropped some very strong hints.
This will definitely be something worth watching!
"Everyone is still looking to make moves. I expect trades before the end of the offseason."

Let's not forget that Jordan Kyrou's name has been circulating heavily in Montreal, and what's currently being said about Kyrou is very similar to what was being said about Noah Dobson right before his trade was announced-so this is definitely something to monitor.
We should also note that the Canadiens are reportedly looking to free up some cap space, so names like Carey Price and Patrik Laine could potentially be on the way out.
