The expert suggests that it would be beneficial for the Habs to acquire Jeannot, who is earning 2.665 million dollars for another season.
"Tampa Bay needs to free up money to sign, notably, Steven Stamkos. Tony thinks the Canadiens might be interested in Tanner Jeannot because he fits exactly what the team needs. Agree or not?"
