At a press conference yesterday following the NHL trade deadline, general manager of the Montreal Canadiens, Kent Hughes, made several statements.
One of the interesting statements that went under the radar was when he mentioned that he was planning to do the same as in past years, being a seller and trading his pending free agents (Christian Dvorak, David Savard, and Joel Armia). However, the team’s five-game winning streak changed everything.
“We thought we would do the same thing as in past years and trade our players, but the guys won five games in a row. We rewarded the players for their efforts.”
