BREAKING | Stanley Cup Champion Traded to Contending Team and Two Trades Announced
The previous three days have seen what seems to be more transactions in the NHL than ever, with most teams getting a head start on the trade deadline, which is set on March 3rd and is only five days away.
The Montreal Canadiens have traded Denis Gurianov, a fellow Russian friend to his trade partner, forward Evgenii Dadonov, who was acquired by the Dallas Stars. A portion of Dadonov's contract will also be kept by the Canadiens, 50%.
Mark Stone, the Golden Knights' captain was recently placed on the injury reserve list which free'd up a lot of cap space. Vegas is a franchise that will act fast, so expected more deals to be made shortly, other than the one below:
Ivan Barabshev of the St.Louis Blues has been traded to the Vegas Golden Knights for a 'prospect', details are not revealed but we believe it is a 1st-round caliber prospect.
Trade: Vegas has acquired
Ivan Barbashev from the Blues for a prospect
Barbashev has a Stanley Cup under his belt and is the ideal heavyweight player for playoff hockey, throwing fourteen hits throughout his last two days.
