On this NHL trade deadline day, expert PM Perron has just submitted an interesting proposal for Jean-Gabriel Pageau.
We know that one of the Canadiens' main objectives today is to add reinforcements at center, particularly for the second-line center position.
"Owen Beck played 8 minutes and 22 seconds, the shortest ice time on his team, against the Oilers last night.
He also played 7 minutes and 49 seconds, the lowest ice time on his team, against the Sabres on Monday.
It's safe to say that Coach Marty simply doesn't trust him at the moment."

There has been a lot of discussion about potential options in this regard.
The names of Dylan Cozens (traded to Ottawa), Trevor Zegras, and Casey Mittelstadt have circulated frequently.
However, the excellent PM Perron has just submitted an interesting new possibility.
A trade proposal between the Canadiens and the Islanders involving Jean-Gabriel Pageau
Here's what he suggests:
"To the Montreal Canadiens:
Jean-Gabriel Pageau
To the New York Islanders:
2nd-round pick
A high-energy, two-way center whose value lies in his versatility, faceoff dominance, and clutch play.
He can play anywhere in the lineup.
30 points in 58 games.
He's not a star, but he plays as a second-line center for the NYI and could serve as a temporary solution."

I really don't hate the idea.
