Indeed, the former Canadiens captain is an unrestricted free agent and is looking for a team where he can prove he still has fuel left in the tank.
We all remember Max Pacioretty's resilience from his time in Montreal, especially after the violent collision with Zdeno Chara. Two Achilles tendon injuries won't stop him!
In short, the American wants to prove he can still hold up and score goals in the NHL, and he is on the verge of signing a contract.
Insider Darren Dreger wouldn't be making such a prediction if the announcement wasn't imminent. Max Pacioretty will most likely be a Maple Leaf in a few hours.
He will have the opportunity to score for a team that is already strong offensively and will have teammates to support him and help him shine.
Even though he's heading to Toronto, we wish him a lot of success, but not against the Canadiens!
