Canadiens Eyeing Former Flames First-Rounder as Trade Option

Montreal is doing its homework on a player who once carried high expectations in Calgary's system, and there's real interest in bringing him to the Bell Centre. The Canadiens' front office is clearly looking to add depth or shake things up, and this former first-round pick could be the kind of reclamation project that fits their timeline. Whether this is a serious pursuit or just due diligence remains to be seen, but it shows Montreal is actively working the phones this offseason.
