The recent winning streak of the Montreal Canadiens will inevitably force general manager Kent Hughes to change his plans.
Brendan Gallagher and Jayden Struble say Habs have a good thing going and it would be a shame to see teammates traded at deadline.
Assuming the Montreal Canadiens are sellers at the trade deadline, do they trade away all their pending unrestricted free agents? Maybe not.
Another indication that a trade is possible is that there are no discussions between the forward's camp and the Montreal Canadiens, per La Presse journalist Richard Labbé. Is Kent Hughes focusing all his efforts on Jake Evans rather than Christian Dvorak?
3 most impressive Montreal Canadiens players from 4-2 win over Buffalo Sabres feat. Christian Dvorak
The Montreal Canadiens entered Saturday's game against the Atlantic Division opponent Buffalo Sabres riding a season-high three game winning streak and hoping to make it four.
When the Canadiens traded for Christian Dvorak, I thought it was a bad idea because of their talk of plugging him into the second-line center role. Dvorak can play the pivot but he’s a 3C. I argued that on social media and shows and it took a while for the team to realize that.

Hosted on MSNHamilton: Sabres hand Montreal another winThe Buffalo Sabres just can’t seem to figure out the Montreal Canadiens this season. Buffalo is now 0-3-0 against them this year and Lindy Ruff is especially annoyed because he feels his team just handed them the two games in Buffalo.
Montreal beat Buffalo for its fourth straight win on Saturday to climb within three points of the playoffs. But what matters even more may be the solid play of the team's youngest players.
Cole Caufield scored his 29th goal of the season and the visiting Montreal Canadiens beat the Buffalo Sabres 4-2 on Saturday night.
The Canadiens issued the next response, beginning when Christian Dvorak set up Josh Anderson as the trailing man on a 4-on-3 rush for the tying goal from the slot. Alex Newhook deflected a Mike Matheson pass to put the Canadiens back in front 3-2 with 2.6 seconds remaining in the period.
The Montreal Canadiens had a day off Sunday, but that doesn't mean there is no news to report this morning. In the morning, Moneypuck.com posted an interesting table on it's X account of the league's highest scoring lines per 60 minutes, and the Habs' top line figures relatively high on the list.
