Habs Have Some BIG DECISIONS Ahead!!

The Montreal Canadiens have several important contract decisions to make this offseason, and some of them could have a major impact on the future of the organization. In this video, we break down the Canadiens' restricted free agent situation and debate what Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton should do with some of the team's most intriguing players. 🔹 Is the jury still out on Kirby Dach? After another injury-filled season, does Dach remain part of the Canadiens' long-term plans, or could Montreal explore trading him? What value would he have around the league, and would a sign-and-trade scenario make sense? 🔹 What should the Canadiens do with Arber Xhekaj? His toughness, physicality, and fan-favorite status are undeniable, but can he establish himself as an everyday NHL defenseman on a contending team? 🔹 Is Joe Veleno's time in Montreal already coming to an end, or is there still a role for him moving forward? 🔹 And what about Zach Bolduc? Following an impressive season, what should his next contract look like? We discuss potential term, salary, and whether the Canadiens should lock him up long-term or take a shorter bridge-deal approach. Join us as we analyze the Canadiens' biggest RFA questions and what they could mean for the future of the franchise. 🔔 Subscribe for daily Montreal Canadiens news, trade rumors, prospect analysis, and live discussions. #montrealcanadiens #nhl #hockey ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
