General Manager Kent Hughes has left the door ajar for the possibility of trading Carey Price's contract, acknowledging the complexities involved. While exploring ways to bolster the team, Hughes emphasized that a deal involving Price is "certainly not out of the question."
"I can't predict exactly how such a trade would unfold, and it may never materialize, but I wouldn't categorize it as an impossibility."

This prospective move could resemble the Shea Weber trade, potentially aiding teams striving to reach the NHL's salary floor. Price, aged 36, still has three years left on his contract, carrying a $10.5 million annual salary cap hit, but an actual annual salary of $2 million, coupled with around $6 million in signing bonuses.
The looming question is whether Hughes will indeed trade Price's contract before it expires, leaving NHL fans buzzing with speculation.
