The Montreal Canadiens will have a top 7 pick in the next NHL draft, which will take place in June. This is a very good pick because of this year's crop, but what would Kent Hughes say if he was offered to move up a few positions to make sure he gets a steal? That's what the Barstool Sports website, from Chicago, suggests. The Canadiens would have the 3rd and 56th picks of the Blackhawks and Chicago would have the 5th and 17th picks of the Tricolore. <q>The ideal situation would be if the Habs were in love with Matvei Michkov or Leo Carlsson. We could trade the #3 and #56 picks for the #5 and #17 picks. If we could pick up Will Smith plus the 17th pick to add to the 20th we already have, we could add two prospects like Gavin Brindley and Gabe Perreault who would be great additions to our pipeline. - Barstool Sports Chicago</q> Sure, it's a steep price to pay to move up two spots, but it all depends on the quality of the player being coveted and the team's needs. If the Habs can make that kind of move and need it, I don't see why Hughes should hold back. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/BarstoolChief/status/1653040556845551618?t=2TETBfYGz6ojqCBN-PMm7g&s=19'> </a></blockquote></div> Credit: <a href='https://www.habsolumentfan.com/canadiens/proposition-de-transaction-entre-le-canadien-et-les-blackhawks' class='link_marker' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Habsolumentfan</a>
