The Edmonton Oilers have been linked to Montreal Canadiens forward Kirby Dach in recent weeks, but a new rumour suggests a potential trade involving the former third-overall pick may have fallen apart at the last minute.
Unconfirmed rumors claim a potential trade sending Kirby Dach from the Montreal Canadiens to a Western Conference team fell through following Ivan Demidov's injury. However, NHL Trade Talk notes that the report originated from an unverified source and lacks credible confirmation. While the Edmonton Oilers have shown past interest in acquiring Dach, no official deal has materialized.
NHL Trade Talk argues that Edmonton general manager Stan Bowman should be patient rather than rush into a trade. With the Oilers starting 3-0-1 despite missing key forwards, the writer suggests evaluating the roster once injured players return before taking on Dach's injury risk.
