Kent Hughes loses a forward for nothing and it's a huge loss for the Habs
We are in the period of change in professional hockey, as all leagues are on break and there are numerous personnel moves.
Kent Hughes is doing everything he can to improve his organization, but things have been quite quiet so far. His best acquisition has been forward Alex Barré-Boulet, which says a lot.
Nevertheless, the general manager isn't giving up, but he will need to act if he wants to strengthen his offense, as even the Rocket's prospect pool is somewhat thin.
Speaking of the Rocket, one of their top forwards from last year has officially left, as Philippe Maillet has signed with HC Ambr�-Piotta in Switzerland.
With 53 points in 67 games last year, the native of Lachenaie was truly important to the organization, but he has decided to continue his career in Europe.
This will be his 4th professional league, having previously played in the NHL, AHL, and KHL.
Good luck with your future endeavors, Philippe. The Rocket will miss you. Without a doubt, you would have been one of the top candidates for a call-up among the forwards.
