The recent winning streak of the Montreal Canadiens will inevitably force general manager Kent Hughes to change his plans.
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?
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 Canadian acquired Christian Dvorak from the Arizona Coyotes (in exchange for a conditional first-round pick in 2022 and a second-round pick in 2024), the club had just lost Phillip Danault and Jesperi Kotkaniemi.

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.
Dave Pagnotta of the Fourth Period was on TSN Radio in Montreal and was asked about the Montreal Canadiens last retention slot and who they could use it on.

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.
MONTREAL - It's that time of the year again and this time around, Montreal Canadiens GM Kent Hughes is not just looking to sell, he's looking to acquire pieces that could help his team right away.
