In a late night bombshell the Montreal Canadiens finally found a home for Max Pacioretty, shipping out their captain to the Vegas Golden Knights days before training camp officially opens. After a long drawn out affair on both sides, involving public tirades from player agents and vehement denials from the GM himself, this nasty saga has come to a close as both sides look ahead.
In return for Pacioretty the Canadiens landed OHL standout Nick Suzuki, Tomas Tatar, and a second round pick that previously belonged to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
