HUGE DEAL: Canadiens captain Shea Weber finally moved

Weber, 36 recently spent all of last season away from the team as his injuries have most likely ended his career short.

This move is simply a salary cap dump. Weber still has 4 years left on his huge $7.8 million AAV contract. None of which has been retained by the Habs.

Weber will most likely never suit up for the Golden Knights and will eat up space on LTIR.

Dadonov is a player Vegas has been trying to get rid of since the deadline but fell through due to his NTC. Vegas needs the cap and offloading Dadonov while Dumping Weber's contract in LTIR saves them money and potentially draft picks.
