Montréal Canadiens: Defensive Trade Targets
The Montréal Canadiens need to add a left handed defenseman this off-season.
If you look at the Canadiens lineup, they have a lot of depth on the right hand side, but lack depth on the left side. On the right side, the Canadiens have Shea Weber, Jeff Petry, Christian Folin, Noah Juulsen, Josh Brook, Cale Fleury, Brett Lernout. The left side consists of Victor Mete, Brett Kulak, Jordie Benn, Mike Reilly, Karl Alzner, David Skleni\u010dka, Otto Leskinen, Xavier Ouellet and Gustav Olofsson.
While Kulak and Benn were effective for the Canadiens at points last season, the Canadiens need consistent and more reliable left handed defensemen.
