Mike Matheson could be inspired by Kent Hughes

That’s what he understood from talking to other executives around the league. Hughes definitely led by example. He’s followed in the footsteps of another of his former clients, Patrice Bergeron. Players accept smaller salaries, and so does he. It’s gestures like this that bring a team even closer together. Mike Matheson could do the same. He has a great opportunity to stay at home and offer stability to the organization. He also has the potential to form a good pair with Noah Dobson for a long time to come. We’ll see what his final demands are, but he can take a cue from Hughes and put some water in his wine. I have a feeling that’s what’s going to happen. There’s a desire on the defender’s part to stay in Montreal, but Kent Hughes will make sure it’s at the right price. In the end, I think Matheson will agree to a long-term deal

Nice moment for him.

– Great story!
