![David Perron: “I’ve always dreamed of playing in Montreal”.](https://cdn.buminteractif.com/2024/05/David-Perron-729x450.jpg)
What’s next for him?
In his eyes, it would be a dream because he grew up supporting the Flanelle…
And he’s not closing the door on being part of the organization, even after his playing career:
If it doesn’t happen as a player, it may happen later. – David Perron

On the other hand…
At 35, you have to wonder if he can really fit into Martin St-Louis’ line-up.
He shouldn’t block the youngsters… Because development is important in Montreal for the coming years.
It’s a bit like the Steven Stamkos situation, basically.
Kent Hughes likes to base his decisions on his club’s long-term success, and there’s that in the equation too.
David Perron has what it takes to help the club in the short term… But has the Habs reached that point in their rebuild?
Would it (really) be worth bringing Perron to Montreal for two or three years, given that he’s nearing the end of his career?
Although… Perron won the Stanley Cup with the Blues in 2019, and the Habs could trust him because he has the experience to guide the youngsters.
In gusts
– Can he do more than 35 next year?
