## Resource

Kirby Dach’s future hangs in the balance as the Canadiens face a tough decision: offer him a $4M qualifying deal or let him walk — and possibly trade him. Despite a rough season with just 15 points in 37 games, analysts like Renaud Lavoie argue Dach still has value. Young, NHL-ready, and with ties to Edmonton (his brother plays for the Oilers), he’s drawing interest from multiple teams. Whether Montreal keeps him or lets him go, Dach’s potential could make him a steal for the right contender. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
