As reported by TVA Sports journalist Anthony Martineau, David Savard extended his session on the ice for a good reason.
His three children joined their dad, accompanied by his partner, to spend a wonderful family time while enjoying the club's facilities.
It was a really great moment to see. We love seeing families involved with the team.
Players spend a lot of time on the road and are often away for a large part of the year due to their hockey obligations.
Every moment at home becomes an opportunity to spend quality time with family.
Speaking of Savard, trade rumors about him have been gaining momentum in recent days.
As an unrestricted free agent, after being traded to the Lightning in a three-team trade with the Detroit Red Wings on April 10, 2021, Savard agreed to a four-year contract with the Montreal Canadiens on July 28, 2021.
The 34-year-old Quebec defenseman will see his four-year contract expire at the end of the year, which means he will become an unrestricted free agent on July 1st.
Kent Hughes will have important decisions to make regarding several of his players, including number 58.
According to tipster David Pagnotta, Savard is generating a lot of interest on the trade market.
The Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers, two serious Stanley Cup contenders, have already expressed interest.
This will be a file to watch closely for the Canadiens between now and the trade deadline.
