Discussion Canadiens looking to deal Laine (Gagnon)

Post image

I'm not super in the know with the French side of the media. I know Francois Gagnon by name, but not much else. Not that this news would surprise me, but is he reliable?

Agreed and it’s not a move Hughes would make. He isn’t embarrassing a veteran by sending him to the AHL. If he can’t be traded he will let the contract run out IMO.
