One of the Canadiens players whose name keeps coming up in trade rumors is Josh Anderson, who just had a terrible season.

With only 9 goals and 20 points, despite being paid $5.5 million, Anderson clearly did not deliver the goods, although it cannot be said that he is lazy.

Indeed, number 17 puts in the effort, but at some point, results are needed. After a disastrous start to the season and an interesting December, it was thought he was back on track, but no. His end of season was difficult.

This was enough for the rumors about him to resurface. After all, with his speed and size, Anderson can really help a team that is aiming to make the playoffs.

Journalist Adam Gretz, who does not cover the Montreal Canadiens, thus proposed a trade with the Penguins for Josh Anderson.

"His idea for Anderson is to see the CH trade him to Pittsburgh. In return, Ryan Graves would head to Montreal." - Félix Forget

Very solid with New Jersey and Colorado, Ryan Graves has become a problem in Pittsburgh, like Anderson. Both have not performed up to expectations, and a fresh start could benefit them.

In my opinion, this proposal is absurd, simply because Kent Hughes already has too many defensemen. Adam Graves does not fit the profile of a defenseman who would deserve the ice time of the young players coming up in the organization.

Moreover, Josh has spent the summer in Montreal and is training with Samuel Montembeault, among others. It is clear that he really wants to bounce back and stay in Montreal, which is worth noting.
