Montreal Canadiens Kirby Dach to be Dealt to the Minnesota Wild?
The Montreal Canadiens and Kirby Dach haven't had such a great tenure during his time there, spending this season injured.
4 games into the season, Dach who was one of the best players during training camp unfortunately sat out the season.
The Habs will look to improve their team in the off-season, according to Kent Hughes.
They could ship out Kirby Dach to try and improve their forward core, all the while giving him a fresh start elsewhere.
With Bill Guerin working against a tight salary cap, and little assets to work with, would the Canadiens and Wild be perfect trade partners?
The ideal trade between the two according to those being speculated on, is the Habs moving Kirby Dach and Alex Newhook for the Wild's 1st Round Pick and Marco Rossi, the ascendant center in Minnesota.
Rossi would likely be a great acquisition for the Habs who are still in rebuild form, and an RFA with an affordable contract.
This is still speculation, however, but based on information going around would be a logical fit for both organizations.
Rossi, still young, 22, and a 9th overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft scored 120 points and 39 goals in 56 games played in the OHL.
Rossi showed up last season posting 40 points( 21 G and 19 A) in 82 Games, with the Wild. He appears to be ready to be to take the next step in his professional career in the NHL.
