The last file to settle for Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens, before the start of the regular season, is obviously that of the second-line center.<\/p>\n
However, to receive, you obviously have to give.<\/p>\n
Knowing that Kirby Dach<\/a> is still not 100% recovered, and that he seems on track to miss the start of the season, a solution is needed.<\/p>\n The Canadiens are not alone. The Vancouver Canucks have exactly the same issue, and they are interested in precisely this type of player.<\/p>\n The Montreal Canadiens and the Vancouver Canucks: the immediate search for a second-line center<\/p>\n The story does not say what they would be willing to give in exchange, but as for Kent Hughes and the Habs, THW reveals this.<\/p>\n “If management has set the objective of finding a medium-term solution to the lack of depth at center on the NHL roster, then a trade of Mike Matheson could be their best option.”<\/p>\n – THW<\/p>\n Following the acquisition of Noah Dobson<\/a>, don’t be surprised if Matheson is the one Kent Hughes trades, in order to acquire this much-needed second-line center.<\/p>\n It will be an interesting competition between Montreal and Vancouver to acquire such a center.<\/p>\n And speaking of a second-line center, here are two who are officially available, including the excellent Pavel Zacha<\/a> (6-foot-3), who is 28 years old.<\/p>\n If I were Kent Hughes, it’s clear that I would be inquiring to try and acquire Zacha.<\/p>\n Previously on HabsFanatics<\/p>\n POLL<\/p>\n 2 HOURS AGO\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0|\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0367 ANSWERS<\/p>\n The Player Kent Hughes Would Be Willing to Sacrifice for a Second-line Center Revealed<\/p>\n Would you trade Mike Matheson + Joshua Roy + Owen Beck for Pavel Zacha?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\tHABSFANATICS.COM
