The New York Islanders traded defenseman Noah Dobson to the Montreal Canadiens ahead of the 2025 NHL Draft, marking a potentially balanced exchange. The Islanders gained two first-round picks, selecting Victor Eklund and Kashawn Aitcheson, while the Canadiens added an offensive defenseman to support Lane Hutson. Although the Canadiens are currently in the Eastern Conference Finals, Dobson has struggled, recording just one point in 12 playoff games. Game 5 is set for Friday night at 8 PM ET.
