Full disclosure: If the Montreal Canadiens enter the Stamkos frenzy, they will need to shed salary. This would lead to some difficult roster decisions and I will break that down further into this article.
Now, who exactly is Steven Stamkos and why would the Montreal Canadiens be interested? Well, for starters, Stamkos is a 26 year old right-handed centerman who has won two Rocket Richard Trophies for leading the league in goal scoring.
Drafted 1st overall in the 2008 Draft, Stamkos entered the league as an 18 year old and over the past 8 seasons has done nothing but produce.
