Insider Drops The Hammer On A Trade Involving Montreal Canadiens Starting Goaltender
The Montreal Canadiens have had a solid start to the 2023-24 season, but with no playoffs expected for the team this season, it appears they may be pivoting to some blockbuster trades.
Montreal Canadiens discuss trade of Jake Allen with a Canadian rival
After a disastrous start to their 2023-24 campaign, the Edmonton Oilers are in dire need of an upgrade at several positions, and according to Elliotte Friedman, they may have found yet another target.
"[The Oilers], they spoke to Montreal, who do not need a goalie in return, about the possibility of trading Jake Allen. [...]"
On his latest edition of 32 Thoughts, Friedman dropped a bombshell, claiming that Montreal have discussed sending Jake Allen to Edmonton after they waived and sent Jack Campbell to the AHL, and it may be their best option in net.
Another fantastic deal for the Canadiens incoming?
Given their cap space and rebuilding plan, the Canadiens have made some smart moves in recent times, like getting Sean Monahan and a first-round pick from Calgary as a salary dump, and with Edmonton desperate, this could be the time for them to strike.
In six games this year, Allen has a 3.35 GAA as well as a .909 save percentage, and with the lack of a genuine superstar being available, this could be a smart move for both parties.
