"After trading Carey Price's contract to the San Jose Sharks, the Montreal Canadiens now have cap space to work. Because of this, they are now in a position to add to their roster. The Canadiens' biggest need is a second-line center, so let's discuss four potential targets who the Habs should consider. Mason McTavish, who is still a restricted free agent (RFA), is exactly the kind of young center Montreal would love to snag."
"He is already an impactful top-six forward at 22 years old and still has plenty of time to improve. Yet, with the Anaheim Ducks rebuilding, it's likely they would prefer to keep him around. Thus, it would need to take a big offer for Anaheim to even consider moving him.

After trading Carey Price's contract to the San Jose Sharks, the Montreal Canadiens now have cap space to work with. The Canadiens' biggest need is a second-line center. Mason McTavish is a 22-year-old RFA and impactful top-six forward with room to improve, but Anaheim's rebuild makes him costly to acquire. Casey Mittelstadt offers buy-low upside after a down year (15 goals, 40 points) and has posted 57 and 59 points in recent seasons. Pavel Zacha provides two-way play and posted 14 goals and 47 points this past season. Jared McCann, primarily a winger who can play center, has recorded at least 22 goals and 61 points in each of the last three seasons.
