Josh Anderson was summoned to Kent Hughes' office and he himself confirms it

Recently, Kent Hughes has been a great leader for the Habs, as he wanted to set the record straight on all the speculation that is going around about him.

Indeed, the CH DG had a good discussion with Anderson and the latter particularly appreciated this gesture.

It was probably Hughes' background as a player's agent that prompted the reassurance from No. 17, and it speaks volumes about the human side of him.

Obviously, everyone is wondering if management will move the power forward in the coming days. He is a player that is attracting a lot of attention on the trade market and there is a very real possibility that he will be moved by March 3rd.

But will he be traded? The main interested party could not get a concrete answer.

So if you read between the lines, he's not an untouchable with the Habs. Recall that he is under contract until 2027 and commands a salary of 5.5M per year.

In short, the next few weeks will be very exciting for the Tricolore!
