In a press conference held just moments ago, Blue Jackets de Columbus General Manager Don Waddell made an important announcement.

For the past few weeks, numerous trade rumors have connected Kent Hughes and Waddell, particularly because the Jackets are in need of a forward, and also due to their recent transaction (the Patrik Laine trade).

The communication channel between them is already wide open, and they are well aware of each other's needs and interests.

Names like Christian Dvorak and Josh Anderson have been circulating in Columbus, but we are still waiting for more information on this matter.

Don Waddell announces that trade discussions are underway, and he wants to add a forward

It's confirmed! Active trade discussions are happening in Columbus!

Knowing Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton, and considering the recent news that they are involved in every deal, it's no surprise that the Montreal Canadiens might be part of these trade discussions with Columbus.

Could a player like Christian Dvorak or Josh Anderson be involved? We can only speculate for now.

However, what we now know from reliable sources is that Don Waddell is indeed in discussions to finalize a trade at this very moment, and we also know that they want to acquire a forward.

Given that they are close to the NHL's salary floor, a player with a salary of $3 to $6 million per year would be a good fit for them.

«General Manager Don Waddell stated that negotiations for a trade are ongoing, but nothing seems imminent at the moment. He hopes to add a forward.»
- Columbus journalist Aaron Portzline

This is an interesting opportunity for the Montreal Canadiens.

I wonder if Don Waddell regrets trading Patrik Laine so quickly, but at the same time, the player had requested a trade, so he didn't have much of a choice.

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on.
