Update on Steven Stamkos and his possible move to Montreal
The name Steven Stamkos has been on everyone's lips recently, as he will become an unrestricted free agent on July 1st, and he could potentially come to Montreal.
The connection with Martin St-Louis and Vincent Lecavalier is easy to make, especially given the strained relations between him and the Lightning.
The Canadiens need to sign an elite player, and despite being 36 years old, Stamkos still fits that category.
He would undoubtedly be the best forward on the team, ahead of Nick Suzuki.
News from Julien BriseBois Regarding Steven Stamkos
For the first time, the Bolts' general manager has agreed to comment on the situation.
We know that Stamkos would have liked the negotiations to start before the beginning of the last campaign, and he was very disappointed that this was not the case.

This statement does not exclude the possibility of seeing Stamkos end up in Montreal, but it certainly makes the chances slimmer.
The Tampa Bay Lightning captain and two-time Stanley Cup winner could therefore reach an agreement with his team and attempt to win again before retiring.
