Habs Lock In Demidov, Marchenko Still Up In Air | Montreal Canadiens News
Description
Montreal’s quiet free agency day got a splash with an eight-year, $73M deal for Ivan Demidov, leaving fans buzzing about whether Kirill Marchenko would join — so much so that one fan promised to shave his head if it happened. Agent Dan Milstein laughed it off, joking the GM had already “shaved his head” — meaning no Marchenko move. While Trocheck was a rumored target, contract hurdles stalled that. Marchenko’s trade value is high, with teams like Utah, Seattle, and Philly showing interest — but Montreal would need to part with top prospects like Zharovsky or Guhle. With Marchenko’s departure from Columbus now less urgent, the Habs’ pursuit remains uncertain — but if they pull it off, it could be the move that turns them into title contenders.
