The rumor has been circulating over the past few days, but now, according to renowned David Pagnotta, it's confirmed.
The Montreal Canadiens and the Washington Capitals have indeed discussed a trade involving Anthony Mantha and Joel Armia.
A situation to monitor! It will be really interesting to see if this will eventually lead to an actual transaction.
Mantha, 29, is a 6-foot-5, 234-pound Quebecois forward. He has recorded two points in 5 games this season with the Capitals. (27 in 67 last season)
He earns $5.7 million per year until 2024.

He earns $3.4 million per year until 2025.
Would you make such a trade? Reading Pagnotta's comments, it seems clear that the Montreal Canadiens are on board with such a transaction, but the Washington Capitals are more hesitant.
