Trade talks heating up between the Detroit Red Wings and the Montreal Canadiens
The Detroit Red Wings and Montreal Canadiens have been very active this off-season and are now discussing a potential major trade involving four players.
Under GM Kent Hughes, the Canadiens have been making smart trades, and a new report reveals they are in talks with the Red Wings to improve their teams.
The proposed trade would send Joel Armia and Jake Evans to Detroit, while the Canadiens would receive Justin Holl, a solid depth player, and Joe Veleno, a 23-year-old former first-round pick who scored 28 points last season.
This deal makes sense for both teams: Detroit would strengthen their roster now, and Montreal would gain depth with Holl while relieving some cap space by moving Armia.
While it's uncertain if this trade will happen, Kent Hughes has the flexibility to make moves as the Canadiens continue to build for the future and work toward playoff contention.
