The Montreal Canadiens are guaranteed to lose a player today, but the question on everyone's minds is what kind of side deal, if any, did general manager Marc Bergevin make with George McPhee of the Vegas Knights?
Are the Canadiens sweetening the deal by offering more to steer McPhee to pick a specific player or did Bergevin make all of his moves before his list was submitted and is content to wait it out?
Of the Canadiens that were left exposed, there are four players that are thought to be the most likely to be taken by the Knights.
