With the All-Star break in the rearview, the trade deadline looms large and is now just a month away. Where does each team stand, and what moves should they be looking to make?
An early season-ending injury to top-six forward Kirby Dach derailed the Montreal Canadiens season nearly as soon as it started. The mantra has followed Montreal, who have also faced significant injury to Christian Dvorak and Rafael Harvey-Pinard. That’s left the team without much bite this season, destined to spend the year focused on developing young talents rather than pushing for the playoffs. But Montreal is prepared for this, boasting one of the youngest lineups in the league and providing ample opportunity to AHL standouts. This includes calling up top prospect Joshua Roy for the first 10 games of his career, signing Brandon Gignac to an extension after AHL success, and rotating a trio of goalies to find their future fit. Montreal is still finding ways to improve in a season of failures on the scoresheet, and the Trade Deadline could be their chance to really lean into prioritizing the future. 22-25-8, 7th in the Atlantic Division.
