Inside today's Locked on Canadiens


With the dust settled following a massive three-way deal last week, the Montreal Canadiens and Kent Hughes find themselves in an interesting spot regarding defenseman Jeff Petry. Scott and Laura break down the dilemma that the front office faces heading into the last stretch before training camp in September.


Is there a possibility that the Canadiens might hold on to Petry for at least this year? If so, where does the returning veteran fit into the lineup and could his arrival spell the end of another vet's time in Montreal? On the flipside, trading him seems to the most valuable path forward and allows the Habs to continue cleaning up their cap situation in a big way. With two more spots for retaining salary, would Kent Hughes use one of them in a Jeff Petry trade?


And if the Canadiens are intent on trading Petry, where could he possibly land? Scott and Laura debate the options, and what they might be looking for in a potential trade return, if anything were to be coming back at all.
