It is being reported by TSN’s Bob McKenzie and others that the Montreal Canadiens are the front runner in the Jonathan Drouin sweepstakes.
. @BWildeCTV reports MTL pushing hard to make Jonathan Drouin trade with TB. My take on that is as follows:

MTL one of handful of teams with serious interest but it’s near impossible to handicap frontrunner/timeline. Only Steve Yzerman knows that. — Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) January 18, 2016

MTL’s Rick Dudley was in SYR on Saturday watching Drouin. Today at 3:05 pm ET, SYR and Drouin are playing the Rochester Americans.

BREAKING NEWS Strong source confirms Habs making a huge push today putting a more significant package on table to acquire Drouin.

//platform.twitter.com/widgets.jsMany believe that the Canadiens cannot offer Lightning GM Steve Yzerman enough high end, young talent to make a deal.
Prospect cupboard basically bare in terms of high end guys. Habs picked 25th, 26th and 26th last 3 drafts, no 2nd round pick in last two. — Аrpon Basu (@ArponBasu) January 18, 2016

Personally, if there’s one team that has the goods to complete a trade for Jonathan Drouin, has the need and is out West, it’s the Ducks.
