Phil Danault's big return to the Habs? Surprise announcement emerges
After the trade announced by the Tampa Bay Lightning, and with Ryan McDonagh's big return there, here is a statement involving Phillip Danault and the Canadiens.
To stay on the theme of homecomings, the radio station BPM Sports asked an interesting question to its listeners.
Which of these former Montreal Canadiens players would you most like to see brought back by Kent Hughes?
"Ryan McDonagh is back in Tampa Bay. Which former Canadien player would you like to see again in the Bleu Blanc Rouge uniform?" - BPM Sports
And here is the poll in question:
Canadiens fans declare that Phillip Danault is the player they would most like to see back in the Montreal uniform
Nearly 37% of fans indeed voted for Danault, while 27.7% voted for Artturi Lehkonen.
Finally, 19% voted for Sean Monahan, and 16% of respondents said they would like to see Tyler Toffoli back in the Canadiens uniform.
It must be said that these are four good choices, four very good players, but let's also add that the two most realistic returns are those of Toffoli or Monahan, as they will be unrestricted free agents on July 1st. They will be free as a bird.
As for Danault, he is a very important player for the Los Angeles Kings, but they will have to make big decisions there due to the bad and very heavy contract signed with Pierre-Luc Dubois.
Do you agree with the results of this poll?
