Max Pacioretty Trade, Blake Wheeler Extension
On the heels of the Max Pacioretty trade from the Montreal Canadiens to the Vegas Golden Knights for Tomas Tatar, Nick Suzuki and a second round pick, the real question that needs to be asked is: When did Marc Bergevin get so fit, and was he a better player than general manager? Did the trade have a winner, and is Patches’ extension good for the Knights?
Speaking of extensions, Blake Wheeler signed an extension with the Winnipeg Jets. Is it a case of too much, too late?
The Vancouver Canucks are on the final Summer Hot Seat. With a mix of young talent and old players on this team, what can be expected from this team? And is Jim Benning getting better at his job? Find out, in an all-new game of “Carl Picks the Best GM in the League”!
