The Habs are heating up, but could Savard and Dvorak be traded? Get the latest Montreal Canadiens trade rumors and insider insights!

NHL insider David Pagnotta mentioned a possible trade involving Christian Dvorak and the Toronto Maple Leafs in Monday’s edition of “The Latest.

The Canadians have one retention slot still available to them, where they can eat money on a deal. So it could be on Savard’s three and a quarter mill. It could be on Dvorak’s $4.45 million cap hit. We’ll see where they go. But the Canadians have options.”
