Canadiens Daily: Canadiens, NHL Trade Rumours; Rangers Done?

Plenty of Montreal Canadiens and NHL trade rumours are percolating as we are less than a month away from the NHL Draft and just over a month away from NHL free agency.

Canadiens defenceman Jeff Petry is becoming a constant in those rumours once again.

Are the Vancouver Canucks about to experience some major changes on their roster?

That, NHL trade rumours, Stanley Cup Playoffs news and more in your BHN Bruins Daily:

Montreal Canadiens

The Dallas Stars and Montreal Canadiens continue to be linked in NHL trade rumours. Recently, Stars GM Jim Nill only fueled those rumours when he said he’s on the hunt for a right-shot defenseman. Jeff Petry anyone?

A former first round pick is returning from the KHL to the NHL and should be of interest to the Montreal Canadiens.

Could the Montreal Canadiens and Edmonton Oilers hook up on the NHL trade market soon?

National Hockey Now

BOS: Former Boston Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy didn’t hold back recently when defending himself against rumours and accusations that he mistreated younger players on the team.

PGH: What would really happen to the Pittsburgh Penguins if they move on from potential unrestricted free agents like defenceman Kris Letang and center Evgeni Malkin?

PHI: Are the 2022 New York Rangers feeling like the 2010 Philadelphia Flyers after losing Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final on home ice Thursday night?

NHL

The Buffalo Sabres are going to retire Ryan Miller’s No. 30 next season.

In what’s becoming too common not just at NHL games but sporting events in general, losers that can’t handle their booze and have no respect for their fellow human being, ruin what could be a fun nights between rival fans. Hope the New York Rangers fan that sucker-punched the Tampa Bay Lightning fan at Madison Square Garden after Game 5 realizes how not tough he is in the slammer!

Looks like Vancouver Canucks president of hockey operations Jim Rutherford is ready to blow up the ‘country club’ that is the Canucks dressing room. The NHL trade and free agent markets could be flooded with Canucks soon.
