On the sidelines of the 2025 NHL Draft, the Montreal Canadiens and the New York Islanders shocked the hockey world with a major trade.<\/p>\n
It’s so rare to see something like this – but a young elite right-handed defenseman was traded.<\/p>\n
Today, Matt Martin<\/a>, who is the assistant to general manager Mathieu Darche over there, made an interesting new statement regarding this trade.<\/p>\n Mathieu Darche realizes just how rare the trade he agreed to with the Montreal Canadiens last month really was<\/p>\n Here’s the quote in question:<\/p>\n Matt Martin, assistant general manager of the Islanders, on the Dobson trade:<\/p>\n Darche said:<\/p>\n “Going through a trade like Dobber’s, you may never see that again. A young, RD, obviously really good Dman getting traded. Not something that happens often.” <\/p>\n The part that really stands out: “we might never see that again!”<\/p>\n Yes, the Islanders’ management fully realizes the magnitude of this trade.<\/p>\n After listening to that interview, you almost wonder if the New York Islanders regret the trade.<\/p>\n We hope Heineman succeeds with the Islanders, and of course, we hope Dobson becomes a star defenseman (for many years) with the Montreal Canadiens.<\/p>\n Previously on HabsFanatics<\/p>\n POLL<\/p>\n 6 HOURS AGO\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0|\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0194 ANSWERS<\/p>\n Trade Completed Between Canadiens and Islanders Was So Rare, ‘We May Never See That Again,’ Says GM<\/p>\n Looking back, who won the Noah Dobson trade, in your opinion?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\tHABSFANATICS.COM
