Breaking: 17 NHL scouts spotted at a single game Thursday night.

It sounds like there may be some major trade talk going on across the National Hockey League.

According to a report from Sportsnet's Eric Engels there have been no less than 17 NHL scouts spotted at the Thursday night game between the Arizona Coyotes and Montreal Canadiens.

It's hard to tell exactly what this means as Engels did not provide the identity of the scouts nor mention what team or teams they are representing. However there have been unconfirmed rumors that Habs general manager Marc Bergevin attended a game in Colorado recently so that could be a clue.

More to come on this story.
