Cayden Primeau traded to Carolina

Earlier this evening, the Canadiens submitted a qualifying offer to Cayden Primeau. As a result, the club retained the goaltender’s rights, possibly with a view to trading him.

And obviously, it didn’t take too long to find a buyer: the Habs have just traded Primeau to Carolina.

And in return, they get ~~the grand prize of~~ a seventh-round pick in 2026.

The Canadiens acquire the Carolina Hurricanes’ seventh-round pick in 2026 in return for the negotiating rights to goaltender Cayden Primeau.
