Montreal Eyes Flyers' $25M Defenseman in Potential Swap

A $25 million defenseman is on Montreal's radar, which tells you the front office is serious about upgrading their back end rather than tinkering around the margins. This kind of swap deal typically means both teams think they're getting better, but one of them usually isn't - and that's where the intrigue lives.
