Montreal Canadiens general manager Kent Hughes might trade the 5th overall pick in the first round, but only under one condition.

According to the renowned David Pagnotta, after discussions with other NHL teams, Hughes is considering this option if Cayden Lindstrom is not available at the fifth spot.
Pagnotta reports that Lindstrom is highly ranked on the Canadiens' list. If Lindstrom is unavailable, Hughes might then decide to trade this pick. This strategy could also apply to Ivan Demidov, another highly coveted young player.
NHL teams are intrigued by Hughes' strategy, as highlighted by TVA Sports. With the draft set to take place in two weeks in Las Vegas, the outcome of this situation is eagerly anticipated.
Cayden Lindstrom, 18 years old, is a center standing 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighing 215 pounds, having scored 46 points (27 goals) in 32 games this season in the WHL, with 66 penalty minutes. A scenario to closely monitor.
