We strongly recommend reading Renaud Lavoie's full article on the subject, but this is one of the key points he made.
Hughes could really take advantage of this trip to Detroit to finalize the trade involving Carey Price.
As of the latest reports, we learned that the Chicago Blackhawks, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and the San Jose Sharks are three teams targeted for such a deal.
Discussions between Hughes and these teams have even been confirmed.
The picture is starting to become much clearer in this case!
