Insider Maxim Guérin has obtained information about a possible three-team deal to trade Josh Anderson.
I'm waiting for two returns for the details but it seems that there was a discussion Mtl-NJ-Columbus for an exchange of picks for 3 teams, it seems complicated and I do not know if it will succeed but this discussion took place.
The name of the forward on the CH side has been announced: Josh Anderson. It seems that the Devils have already tried to acquire him twice, once when he was with the Jackets and the other before the deadline last year.
The major transaction could look like this:
To Montréal :
Columbus 1st (12)
Pavel Zacha
To Columbus:
New Jersey 1st (2)
To New Jersey:
Josh Anderson
Columbus 1st (chi) (6th) In summary, New Jersey would receive Josh Anderson for four draft spots. Columbus would move up to draft second. Montreal would receive a great third center to complement Suzuki/Wright and a 12th pick to draft a likely top-six winger, in an effort to complete the offensive duos. Montreal would also lighten its payroll.
