The Montreal Canadiens have a surplus of forwards with 16, when normally the team would have 12 or 13 in uniform.
Unfortunately, the one who is likely to be sacrificed is Michael Pezzetta.
His value is not very high, with his 11 points last season. So, he will either be sent to Laval through the draft or he will be traded by Kent Hughes by the start of the season.
Unfortunately, if he goes through the draft, the chances of losing him for free are high.
Obviously, trading Christian Dvorak, Joel Armia and Mike Hoffman is a possibility, but at what price?
Check out the CH's active forwards right now, according to CapFriendly :
1- Nick Suzuki
2- Brendan Gallagher
3- Josh Anderson
4- Evgeny Dadonov
5- Mike Hoffman
6- Christian Dvorak
7- Joel Armia
8- Paul Byron
9- Jake Evans
10- Rem Pitlick
11- Juraj Slafkovsky
12- Cole Caufield
13- Michael Pezzetta
14- Kirby Dach
15- Sean Monahan
16- Jonathan Drouin (who says he is ready to play)
