The Montreal Canadiens official trade offer for Rutger McGroarty leaks
The Montreal Canadiens have been very interested in trading for Jets forward Rutger Mcgroarty, and now the details of that trade offer have leaked.
According to information circulating overseas, Filip Me�ár was the player the Canadiens offered to the Winnipeg Jets as part of a trade aimed at acquiring Rutger McGroarty. In addition to the young Slovak, Montreal would also have to add either the Flames or Panthers draft pick from 2025, as well as a young defenseman, likely Jordan Harris or Justin Barron.

It seems as though the Jets are rejecting the Habs offer for now, but things could still change. Me�ár put up 52 points in 45 games in the OHL last year, but for someone of that age playing against a bunch of 16 and 17-year-olds, those numbers are disappointing.
Me�ár also declined Canadiens' GM Kent Hughes' invitation to attend Montreal's development camp.
The following is a translation regarding a detailed explanation of the current situation:
According to information circulating overseas, Filip Me�ár was offered as part of a trade aimed at acquiring Rutger McGroarty from the Winnipeg Jets. However, in addition to the Slovak youth, Montreal would also have to add a draft pick from the Panthers or Flames in 2025 and a young defenseman, perhaps Justin Barron or Jordan Harris. However, Winnipeg seems to be rejecting Kent Hughes' various offers for now.
Trading two players with attitude problems might have been seen as smart at first, as a change of scenery could have potentially done both some good, but it's proving to be a lot more challenging than initially thought.
