Price’s health, youth development are big off season storylines for Habs
Hughes said that Price will go through his exit medicals, then they will sit down with the doctors to try to get a clearer perspective on what Price can achieve going forward.
“The objective for us will always be to build a team capable of winning year-to-year. That’s our main objective and the decisions we need to make in the summer will be based on that.”With a young blue line a possible Jeff Petry trade is still looming. Hughes said that if he off-loaded Petry he would try to bring on another veteran defenceman.“That would certainly be an objective for us,” Hughes said. “Our priority will be to place our young guys in the right environment to develop.
With the highest odds at the first overall pick and possibly centreman Shane Knight, Hughes said his biggest priority at the moment was the 2022 NHL Draft. The Habs GM also added that the centre line would be an area of interest.
