In a recent development that has sent ripples through the NHL community, Montreal Canadiens head coach Martin St. Louis addressed the media regarding trade discussions involving star forward Cole Caufield. Reports have surfaced that the Buffalo Sabres proposed a trade, offering young center Dylan Cozens in exchange for Caufield or fellow forward Juraj Slafkovsky. General Manager Kent Hughes declined the offer, emphasizing the organization’s commitment to its young talent.
St. Louis, known for his candid assessments, previously commented on Caufield’s performance earlier in the season. Despite Caufield’s impressive goal-scoring record, St. Louis remarked, “I still think Cole is leaving things on the table. I think he should be scoring more goals. It’s not about taking more shots; it’s about where he positions himself on the ice.”
