In the last few minutes, Raphaël Doucet, from "La Poche Bleue", posted this:
"A well-informed source just texted me that 'Allen was told he would stay in Montreal'.
So, does this mean goodbye to DeSmith?"
Interesting! The decision regarding Jake Allen's future with the Montreal Canadiens seems to have already been made. He will not be traded.
Given that Kent Hughes will apparently be exploring the trade market for one of his goalies, all signs indeed point to Casey DeSmith being the one to go.
Stay tuned! Don't be surprised if DeSmith is traded soon.
