[Sports Illustrated: The Hockey News] - Former Canadiens Player Nominated For Bill Masterton Trophy
One of Kent Hughes’ best moves as the Montreal Canadiens’ GM was to take Sean Monahan off the Calgary Flames’ hands. Not only did it turn out well because he proved he could still play, even though it came after a first season plagued with injuries, but because Hughes managed to get two first-round picks out of the player. The first was a thank you from the Flames for taking on his salary, and the second was when Monahan was traded to the Winnipeg Jets.
