Rumors surrounding the possible arrival of Sidney Crosby with the Montreal Canadiens have been multiplying for some time.
Some experts are convinced that the 38-year-old veteran will eventually become a target for Kent Hughes.
As reported by DansLesCoulisses, insider Darren Dreger recently added more fuel to the fire, and his comments are sure to delight Canadiens fans.
During an episode of the Barn Burner podcast, the well-known TSN journalist stated that Montreal would do everything in its power to try to acquire the Pittsburgh Penguins forward.

Very interesting comments from Dreger, who sees the Canadiens' massive potential in the coming years - and the addition of Sidney Crosby could dramatically change the organization's outlook.
Even though Montreal isn't considered a Stanley Cup contender this season, the addition of a player of Crosby's caliber would certainly give a major boost to the team's ambitions.
Moreover, his possible arrival would finally solve the long-standing issue of finding a true second-line center - a topic that has lingered for months. We also know that Crosby met with his family and agent to discuss his future.
For now, it's not expected that Penguins GM Kyle Dubas will put his star player on the trade market, but if his team finds itself near the bottom of the standings by the holidays, this situation could heat up quickly.
