Eric Engels of Sportsnet: (mailbag) would try to acquire Columbus Blue Jackets forward Josh Anderson if he were the Montreal Canadiens. He had season-ending shoulder surgery and only scored one goal this season, but scored 63 from 2016-2019. He’s a pending RFA and a year away from being a UFA.
A straight-up trade for Max Domi makes sense but a bit of gamble on the Canadiens side. There is the health issue, and the Canadiens would need to sign him long-term immediately.
The Canadiens need to start making some moves on the blue line that would allow them to cut back on the minutes they give to Shea Weber.
