Kirill Marchenko’s agent continues to string Montreal fans along

Since the start of summer, Montreal Canadiens fans have been waiting for management to make a big move—a trade that would significantly improve the team.

It's almost the end of August, and Kent Hughes still hasn't pulled off that much-anticipated major trade—which, some might argue, is perhaps for the best.

Still, in the absence of an actual trade, we've been treated to countless rumors surrounding the Habs.

The ones that have garnered the most attention for most of the offseason are those involving Columbus Blue Jackets forward Kirill Marchenko.

The Russian winger doesn't seem to want to stay in Columbus long-term, which has fueled rumors about him—especially those involving the Canadiens, who are clearly very interested in acquiring such a talented player.

There were repeated beliefs that a trade was imminent, but in the end, nothing came of it—all while having to read posts from his agent, Dan Milstein, who seemed to take pleasure in taunting Habs fans.

Well, Milstein has just done it again by mentioning Montreal in one of his tweets.
