Kent Hughes and the Canadiens will finally be making moves soon, according to an analyst

The Canadiens' offseason is only a few days old, but already many hockey fans are speculating about the personnel moves to come within the team.

But before we find out what Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton's plans are for the 2023-2024 season, some experts have already shared their opinions, and that was the case with Dany Dubé.

As reported by Philippe Chênevert of Habsolumentfan.com, the Habs' 98.5 game analyst was on Les Amateurs de sports and said he expects the Habs to be active this summer and that Kent Hughes will be looking for reinforcements.




And it will happen soon, right after the NHL playoffs are over.

The analyst went on to mention that the management will have to make things happen and make moves like we saw last year with the acquisition of Kirby Dach because there is currently too much deadwood within the Canadiens.


Without naming names, Dubé revealed a sad reality within the Canadiens concerning some elements, but he later added that Kent Hughes will have to use some draft picks to acquire established NHL players.

As we know, the Canadiens have two first-round picks, and it wouldn't be surprising if the management used the Florida Panthers' pick to complete a trade, and maybe even the Canadiens' own pick, which will be at worst seventh overall.

Well, this option is unlikely to happen, but with Kent Hughes, we can't rule out a big surprise on the night of the first round of the upcoming draft.
