With Demidov coming next season it would be helpful for Montreal to get a veteran Russian player to help Ivan to get used to NA life. And Buch is still a pretty good player signed for $5.8M till 30/31 season.

I don't think.
 
Ahha, I've forgotten about this. But even then Montreal will have a lot of cap space next season. No Dvorak, and Armia, it's almost $8M. Plus current $7.5M. Plus the cap goes up.
Until the start of the season Montreal has around 8 mill in cape pace not including the cap going up, or the players they need to sign to fill out a team.

Habs have the cap space they do because of Price on LTIR, which they only do at the start of the season as that's the best way to maximize that.
 
We'll have caufield, Slafkovsky, Laine, and demidov on the wing next season. Where does buch fit in to the top 6?
 
Considering both the player and team just made a 6-year commitment to each other, I'd say the chances he's traded before the extension even comes into effect is next to zero. I guess if a team offered an absurd overpay then the Blues would have to consider it, but I doubt that will happen.
