The Montreal Canadiens are still searching for a forward to help their Top 6 and their best chance to add to this group may be taking a chance on a former first-round pick.
Writer Brandon Croce argues that the Montreal Canadiens should pursue Washington Capitals forward Ivan Miroshnichenko via trade following a report from Elliotte Friedman. Friedman reported that Washington granted Miroshnichenko permission to seek a trade after the 2022 first-round draft pick appeared in only three games this season.
Croce suggests Canadiens general manager Kent Hughes could offer a mid-round pick and a prospect for the forward. With Montreal currently missing top-six forwards Nick Suzuki and Ivan Demidov due to injuries, Croce believes acquiring Miroshnichenko represents a low-risk, high-reward move for the club.
