Montreal, QC (CP) -- Rumors are running wild Tuesday night over an apparent trade that could see the Montreal Canadiens shipping off veteran defenseman Stephane Quintal.
While the Canadiens would not confirm or deny these reports, French Canadian all-sports television station RDS suggests the Habs have traded Quintal and an official announcement is expected to be made Wednesday morning.
It's uncertain where Quintal has been traded to, if in fact he was dealt, however speculation suggests it's to a fellow Canadian team.
Quintal, 35, was unavailable for comment.
