Analyst Martin Biron Proposes Major Trade That Would See Arber Xhekaj Land in New York
The former New York Rangers goaltender and current hockey analyst, Martin Biron, has indeed just floated a major trade proposal between the Canadiens and the Rangers.
Let us recall that, in the past hours, we have learned that Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba are genuinely on their way out of the Rangers organization.
The names being considered are Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba.
A trade between the Montreal Canadiens and the New York Rangers involving Jacob Trouba?
On BPM Sports radio, Martin Biron stated that Kent Hughes should target the acquisition of the very rugged Jacob Trouba.
One thing is certain, he would certainly command respect and make opposing players think twice when attempting to enter the Montreal Canadiens' zone.

And you, would you make the following trade?
Jacob Trouba, at $5 million, in exchange for Arber Xhekaj and a prospect.
