When Jordan Weal was acquired by the Montreal Canadiens at the Trade Deadline in return for Michael Chaput, it was with little fanfare. What was apparent is that Weal would get a chance in the NHL, while Chaput was relegated to the AHL and that gave the trade some potential right away.
And boy did Weal take advantage of his chance. In 16 games with the Canadiens, Weal had four goals and six assists. He had four goals and seven assists in 47 games with the Philadelphia Flyers and Arizona Coyotes.
