Lots of teams were calling on Josh Anderson in the last few days and weeks. Probably one of the most popular player on the market for many reasons. Great trade by Marc Bergevin and I’m sure some teams are not happy right now that he’s not available anymore.

There were A LOT of teams after Anderson. Several clubs firmly believe in his goal-scoring potential. He was a hot commodity (10th on our Trade Watch List). Habs hope he hits that potential. Domi, who was 9th on our Trade Watch List), gets the opportunity to be a 2C with CBJ.

Anderson was 29th in hits for forwards from 2017-2019 (healthy seasons). From that top-30 group he's 6th in total points, 6th in penalties drawn, 7th for takeaways.

Lots of reason for optimism that if this 6'3" winger is healthy, he will be an excellent addition to the #Habs
