We evaluate Kent Hughes on the moves he made and the ones he didn't. Did he fully take advantage of the trade market to advance the Montreal Canadiens rebuild?
The Montreal Canadiens were clearly in the category of sellers once again at this year's NHL Trade Deadline. In the process of rebuilding, it was the perfect opportunity for Kent Hughes to move assets that won't be part of the team when they become a Stanley Cup contender.
As detailed on last week's Canadiens Connection podcast, the market was setting up perfectly for the Canadiens general manager. Did Hughes fully take advantage?
We evaluate Kent Hughes on the trades he made and the ones he didn't in this week's episode of Canadiens Connection podcast.
In addition, we provide roster updates including Colin White. And we outline the week that was for Habs prospects. We conclude the show with comments, texts, and emails from you, our loyal Canadiens Connection listeners.
