We've been saying it for weeks now, there are too many forwards on the Habs and too few defencemen, especially right-handed ones. There is no depth in this area and the current players, David Savard, Chris Wideman and Justin Barron, cannot get too many minutes. Logic dictates that Kent Hughes desperately needs to trade an offensive player to get a right-handed defenseman, but there is a solution internally - Michael Matheson. On air with Martin Lemay on <i>BPM Sports</i>, Matheson mentioned to Martin that he can play on the right, even though there are certain situations where it's advantageous for him to be on that side. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/bpmsportsradio/status/1565697855389683714?t=EIs3uLpRkKoV5W-Rkw_clg&s=19'> </a></blockquote></div> In today's hockey, the game is so fast and the players so talented that coaches don't necessarily like to put a defenceman on his bad side. However, this news could add some flexibility to Martin St-Louis, especially if there are injuries to some of the defensemen.
