Wonder if the Habs were in on Cutter Gauthier? That would seem on the surface to be the kind of move they would want to be in on - converting surplus talent among D prospects to an impact forward prospect.

They don’t have the quality of D prospect or players to make a real move on Gauthier though. Unless they wanted to move Reinbacher but by all accounts they already turned that down once.

Not sure I agree with that ... they may not have wanted to move certain guys ... but I would expect if Guhle or Reinbacher were in play they would have been in contention. Mailloux and Hutson may not have been that far off either if packaged with another asset.

Then again, Hutson is, imo, untouchable.

Then again, Hutson is, imo, untouchable. That's a tough one. In theory it has potential to be an incredible deal for both teams, but also be Sergachev/Drouin 2.0. Hard to know this early in their careers.

Sounds like a Real Dandy and he hasn't even taken a shift in the NHL yet . Good thing that Anaheim only play one game in Philly a year . Those Philly Fans are Crazeeeeee ! They threw Snow Balls at Santa Claus a few years back .

They have Guhle Hutson Reinbacher plus Barron and Mailloux depending on how other teams value them.

In an ideal world, you make a similar trade but not a local kid with a ton of pressure.

"Teams have not only called the Montreal Canadiens about rugged defenceman Arber Xhekaj, but some have also pitched offers. In fact, word is the Habs received an offer for a young NHL forward, a former first-round pick, with second-line potential. Montreal declined."

Source: www.thefourthperiod.com/pagnotta/kings-reaching-breaking-pointI get Xhekaj is a fan favorite, and still has some potential, but turning down a young forward with top 6 potential...? Idk that seems like a poor move. Maybe I'm undervaluing Xhekaj's overall potential. I personally see him as a #4 guy at most if he hits his ceiling? 25 point type guy.
