Trade involving the Montreal Canadiens and Christian Dvorak? Kent Hughes may have a partner
According to what Aaron Portzline mentions, Don Waddell is looking for players to increase his team's salary cap, and Kent Hughes has exactly what he needs with Christian Dvorak.
The departure of Patrik Laine, combined with the tragic passing of Johnny Gaudreau, has placed the team below the salary floor, which is undesirable.
Obviously, Gary Bettman and the NHL will be lenient if the Blue Jackets fail to reach the salary floor, but the GM still wants to make some acquisitions, and that could involve Montreal.
The signing of James van Riemsdyk announced on Sunday is not enough, and the team is still missing two forwards.
That's where the names of Christian Dvorak, Joel Armia, Josh Anderson, and Brendan Gallagher come up. However, to be realistic, Christian Dvorak makes the most sense since he will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the next season and because he is a reliable center.
Will Kent Hughes receive a call from Don Waddell for another transaction? We'll find out soon, but the Blue Jackets' goal is to add players now, before the start of the season.
