Rumor: Another Big Move Coming from Montreal

The Montreal Canadiens were one of the busiest teams this past offseason after the team eliminated the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first round of the playoffs and showed some serious promise and potential. General manager, Marc Bergevin has added the likes of Tyler Toffoli, Joel Edmundson, Jake Allen, Josh Anderson to go along with super-prospect Alexander Romanov.

Needless to say the Canadiens are going to look a lot different this season and it sounds like there's still another big move to come!

The Habs currently have under $400,000 in cap space so any addition would have to come via subtraction, so a deal could be on the table in Montreal. Their goaltending is surely set with Carey Price and Allen, their defense appears to be set, so if the Canadiens make any big moves in the next couple weeks, expect a left-winger to be coming back in the deal.

The Canadiens are one of the up-and-coming teams in the league and look to battle it out with the rest of the Canadian teams in the brand new 'North' division. The team will try to continue to develop and keep moving north in the standings, one move at a time.
