Will Vegas Flip Pacioretty After Habs Trade? By Jamie Gilcig 091018
Cornwall Ontario – Oddly enough this will go down as one of Hab GM Marc Bergevin’s best trades. It wasn’t a great trade, and barely was a good trade as the team diminished its asset as it seems bent on doing. Will they be trashing Carey Price and his near untradeable contract next if the… Continue reading Will Vegas Flip Pacioretty After Habs Trade? By Jamie Gilcig 091018
