Kent Hughes has reportedly acquired the next Artturi Lehkonen

At the most recent trade deadline, Habs GM Kent Hughes traded forward Tyler Toffoli to the Calgary Flames.

In return, the Habs received a first round pick in 2022 (Filip Mesar), veteran Tyler Pitlick and young prospect Emil Heineman.

In fact, many experts believe that the 20-year-old will be the future Artturi Lehkonen of the Canadiens. Both players have a very similar style of play and are excellent on the 200-foot ice.

Last season in Sweden, Heineman had 16 points in 38 games. He could make his debut with the Laval Rocket this year.
