Frank Seravalli Reveals Shocking Last-Minute Twist in Josh Anderson Trade Talks
NHL insider Frank Seravalli has just revealed some shocking information regarding Canadiens' Josh Anderson, as trade talks surrounding him really heat up.
It is a huge decision and one that, indeed, may set up the future of the Canadiens going forward. Does Kent Hughes go with the current and keep a gritty, leadership-type player, or take the chance on an opportunity that may net him something in value?
It's not an easy choice. Josh Anderson, despite modest stats this season, 6 goals and 15 points in 40 games, continues to skate with speed and deliver the kind of physical presence every team craves.
He's not having a bad season, especially when considering his role. Recently, Anderson has also stepped up on the penalty kill, showcasing his versatility and playoff potential.
In the locker room, Anderson is a fixture. He does his job without complaint and plays at close to 100% effort night in and night out. His physicality and leadership could be just what the Canadiens need if they make a playoff push.
On the other hand, Anderson has two more years at $5.5 million per annum. Clearing that cap space could open doors toward acquiring young talent or draft picks for the team to bolster their future.
Multiple teams inquiring on Josh Anderson per Frank Seravalli
And here's the twist: according to Frank Seravalli, multiple teams have shown interest in Anderson. Something that appeared improbable only months ago suddenly appears very plausible.
Anderson has quietly become a hot commodity in the trade market, and his Canadiens team now sits in a place of leverage.
Is it time to cash in, or is Anderson too vital to let go? Hughes has to weigh the short-term gain against the long-term impact, and whatever he decides will have huge repercussions.
