A report by the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Boston Hockey Now says the Montreal Canadiens are showing interest in acquiring the services of Dallas Stars defenseman Julius Honka. Honka remains the Stars last RFA needing to be signed. According to CapFriendly, they only have $970,000 in cap space to do it with.

Honka, 23, split last season between the Stars and their AHL affiliate, the Texas Stars. In 29 games with Dallas, Honka registered four assists. He was selected in the first round, 14th overall, in the 2014 entry draft.
Honka was a top-rated prospect who hasn't seemed to find a regular spot in the NHL yet. Murphy states he's uncertain what the Stars might ask for in return should a trade materialize.
