Canadiens receiving calls on forward Josh Anderson
During an appearance on The Jeff Marek Show, Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman mentioned that one of the more interesting names to keep an eye on when it comes to the Montreal Canadiens is Josh Anderson and that teams are interested in him.
Jeff Marek then asked if he's curious about the upcoming trade deadline, which is exactly one month away, or off-season curious.
Anderson, 27, was traded to the Canadiens in October of 2020 in exchange for Max Domi and a draft pick. Shortly after his trade, Anderson penned a seven-year contract with the Canadiens that comes with a $5.5 million cap hit.
In 39 games this season, the Burlington (Ontario) native has eighteen points (ten goals, eight assists), 41 penalty minutes and is a minus-21.
The Canadiens will be busy over the next four weeks, with names like Ben Chiarot, Artturi Lehkonen, Brett Kulak, Chris Wideman and Jeff Petry among others all garnering interest from teams around the NHL.
"I think there's interest in him. I get kind of mixed reactions on what Montreal is thinking there."@FriedgeHNIC on Josh Anderson's future with the #Habs w/ @JeffMarek.
