We have a major development involving Boston Bruins forward Pavel Zacha, and it’s excellent news for Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens.

Zacha isn’t just available on the trade market – the Bruins are actively trying to move him.

This is big, because we’re talking about a player who would be absolutely perfect for the Montreal Canadiens.

It’s Now Confirmed: The Door Is Open for a Trade Involving Bruins Forward Pavel Zacha, and the Canadiens Must Take Advantage

This could become very interesting for Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton.

The Fourth Period: Re Pavel Zacha:

“The Bruins explored the trade market on Zacha during the season and there is belief out there that Boston is looking, again, at moving him”

Pavel Zacha, 28 years old, is a big left-handed center, standing 6-foot-3 and weighing 206 pounds. He was selected 6th overall by the New Jersey Devils in the 2015 NHL Draft and has recorded 47 and 59 points in his last two seasons with the Bruins.

What more could you ask for?

He’s exactly the type of player the Montreal Canadiens need right now.

Also worth noting – Zacha carries a very reasonable cap hit of $4.75 million per year through 2027.

Personally, I strongly believe that Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton need to find a way to get this deal done with the Boston Bruins.

Acquiring Pavel Zacha would be absolutely perfect for the Habs right now.
