NHL Teams Calling About Arber Xhekaj! Should the Habs Listen?

Arber Xhekaj continues to generate interest around the NHL, with reports suggesting several teams have been checking in on the rugged Canadiens defenseman. But should Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton even consider moving one of the most unique players in the organization?

We discuss: Why NHL teams value Arber Xhekaj so highly Does Xhekaj still fit into Montreal's long-term plans? What kind of return would it take to justify a trade?

Does The NHL Need To Make THIS Change ASAP?

The NHL offseason has once again sparked debate over no-trade clauses and no-move clauses, but have these contract protections gone too far? On today's episode of The Starr & D'Amico Show, we discuss whether no-trade and no-move clauses are ultimately good or bad for the NHL. Should players who request a trade still be allowed to control where they're traded? Or does asking out mean they should lose that protection altogether? We debate whether general managers are being handcuffed, how these clauses impact roster building, and whether the NHL should consider changing the rules. Is there a better balance between player rights and team flexibility? Join the conversation live and let us know: If a player demands a trade, should their no-trade clause automatically become void? 👍 Like the video, subscribe, and hit the notification bell so you never miss Montreal Canadiens news, NHL analysis, breaking news, and live discussions. #montrealcanadiens #nhl #hockey ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
