Just days away from the NHL Draft, Sidney Crosby's name continues to stir conversation around the Montreal Canadiens.
It's a fascinating situation, especially since we've learned (via Pierre LeBrun) that the Pittsburgh Penguins are currently the only true sellers.
Clearly, the Pennsylvania team is heading into a full, deliberate rebuild.
Penguins About to Tear It All Down: Has a Trade for Sidney Crosby Finally Been Requested?
I refuse to believe No. 87 will simply accept finishing his career on a rebuilding team. He's too passionate and too competitive for that!
And if Crosby does end up giving the green light to a trade, it would be a massive shock here because experts and oddsmakers agree on one thing:
If Sidney Crosby is traded, the Montreal Canadiens would be among the top favorites to acquire him - and that exact topic came up on a recent episode of the The Basu and Godin podcast.
And that's where a specific name came up.
Juraj Slafkovsky Included in a Trade to Acquire Sidney Crosby?
That one is sure to spark strong reactions.
"François Gagnon, who appeared on the podcast The Basu and Godin, wouldn't hesitate to include an already-established young player like Juraj Slafkovsky in order to acquire Crosby."

According to the RDS expert, the only untouchables in Montreal are Nick Suzuki, Ivan Demidov, Lane Hutson, and possibly Kaiden Guhle.
All other players (including Juraj Slafkovsky and Cole Caufield) could be moved for the right price, in his opinion.
Do you agree with him on that?
