Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin added a few depth pieces at the trade deadline.
He didn’t make any blockbuster trades to bring in superstar players, but with the team sitting somewhat comfortably in a playoff spot, their GM went out and added a couple of pieces to make the team better.
The player he gave up the most to bring in was veteran centre Eric Staal. Bergevin sent third and fifth round draft picks to the Buffalo Sabres for the 36 year old who has over 1200 games of NHL experience.
