Artturi Lehkonen scored twice on Wednesday night, extending his point streak to five games. And while no one in Montreal wants to see him leave town, the market might be too high for GM Kent Hughes to turn away from. (EricEngels)

on Twitter, the one with Montreal Canadiens general manager Kent Hughes saying he wasn’t trying to trade Artturi Lehkonen, we saw the responses. We know most Canadiens fans want Lehkonen to stay through the Mar. 21 deadline, that they have come to appreciate his value now more than ever, and that they probably only feel stronger about it after watching him extend his point streak to five games in a 5-3 loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday.

Even a few on the bubble should have interest in a player who can do so much more than score goals and assists to bolster their chances. It was also a message to any potential suitors, one that said, “We’re not giving Artturi Lehkonen away.”

EricEngels I’d be trading Lehk and Chiarot and a 3 to rangers for Kravtosov, Lundkvist and a 1

EricEngels No way keep him still young , plays great defensively, sign him 3 years around the 3 mill a year

EricEngels The only guys who will be traded are chiarot and Perreault maybe Allen if a team wants a goalie

EricEngels And then he goes to another team and wins a cup

EricEngels Keep him. He’s worth the money. Only 27 and will be very important to the team moving forward. Very little LW in the medium to long term on this team. I’d be happy to have him stay for another 5 years. Can play up and down the lineup. Unless it’s a 1st and good NHL ready prospect

EricEngels For the right price everyone is available!

EricEngels We saw Poelhing replacing Dauphin with Gallagher and Hoffman, I think MSL responded to your question.

EricEngels All due respect Eric the market for lehkonen is a second rounder at best. Thares lots of better players available then lehkonen

EricEngels A second round pick?

EricEngels is he playing his way onto a playoff contender or playing to stay on the habs is the true question

EricEngels Btw JT Miller had 4 points and the Canucks win another game Canucks shown no love
