Episode 85: The Most Exciting Off-season Action for the Habs is...

Get PuckD Podcast: A Montreal Canadiens Podcast

In this episode, we discuss...

The NHL playoffs. What is the most and least surprising result so far. The Leafs and Marner. Washington Capitals. Are the Dallas Stars and Winnipeg Jets pretenders?

There are four major things to happen with the Habs this off-season (NHL lottery draft, NHL draft, trades and RFA and UFA signings). Of these four, which are the most exciting?

With Utah officially in the fold, does the off-season dynamic change? If so, how and in which way? The new owner spoke about making a big splash and being big spenders. All talk or is Utah going to be active the way Vegas has since entering the NHL?

An account on X - Denis Pettigrew (@DenisPMtl), recently tweeted an interesting trade scenario involving the Montreal Canadiens 5th overall pick in the 2024 draft (assuming they stay at 5) and San Jose's 4th overall pick in the 2023 NHL draft (Will Smith). Of all of the crazy trade proposals that we have seen on social media, this one was one of the most intriguing ones. While it this trade scenario is unlikely to happen, it is certainly thought inducing and one that piqued our interest enough to talk about it. Credit to him.

Would Dave and Matt like to see the Habs trade for Clayton Keller?
