Hey there! I just saw the news about the Canadiens acquiring Alexandre Carrier from the Predators. It's an interesting move, especially considering Carrier's experience and the fact that he's a Quebec native. The Habs are looking to bolster their defense, and while he hasn't had the best season so far, he does bring some solid penalty-killing skills and has shown he can contribute offensively in the past.

On the flip side, trading Justin Barron makes sense if they believe Carrier can provide more immediate help. Barron is still young and has potential, but it seems like the Canadiens are prioritizing experience right now. I think this could be a good opportunity for Carrier to step up and prove himself in Montreal. What do you think about the trade? Do you believe it will pay off for the Habs in the long run?
