We have an important and interesting development for the Montreal Canadiens concerning the NHL trade market.
We've been talking to you for several days now about Marco Rossi, who I believe is the most realistic option for Kent Hughes on the trade market, and it has just been confirmed.
According to multiple sources, Marco Rossi is officially available for a trade.
Confirmed: Marco Rossi Is on the Trade Market
This is definitely an intriguing option for Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton, who will have a decision to make on this file.
"According to Jimmy Murphy, Marco Rossi is very much on the block for the Minnesota Wild, with chatter expected to pick up next week.
Flyers, Sabres, Penguins and Blackhawks are among the teams to have already shown interest, with the field expected to expand."

It is fully expected that the Montreal Canadiens will join this list.
We'll be monitoring this closely, as we're talking about a top-six forward, a second-line center built for playoff hockey.
Despite standing 5-foot-9, it's worth noting that Rossi is a true workout beast. He's strong, tough, and plays much bigger than many players who are 6-foot-2.
Let's not forget that a certain Brad Marchand is also listed at 5-foot-9, and that hasn't exactly held him back come playoff time.
Marco Rossi, 23 years old, recorded 60 points in 82 games this season, including 24 goals, while finishing with a solid +3 rating.
Do you think he should be a priority for the Montreal Canadiens?
