Report: Canadiens getting more calls on Plekanec following Brassard trade
by Cory Wilkins from on (#3GMK5)
Call it the domino effect.
With Ottawa Senators center Derick Brassard on the move Friday, teams are turning their attention to Montreal Canadiens pivot Tomas Plekanec, TSN's Pierre LeBrun reports.
The veteran center is a pending unrestricted free agent and is a prime target to be dealt ahead of Monday's trade deadline, particularly with the Canadiens sitting outside of the playoff race.
Plekanec, 35, has spent his entire career with the Canadiens, and has been a steady offensive contributor up until the past two campaigns. Through 60 games this season, Plekanec has tallied six goals and 18 assists.
