Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price has reportedly waived his no-move clause in advance of the NHL expansion draft, which will be held Wednesday to fill the Seattle Kraken roster.
Pierre LeBrun of TSN, who broke the news, explained why Price did so.
"Hearing that Carey Price has waived his no-move for purpose of exposure in the expansion draft so that the Habs could protect Jake Allen in the expansion draft," LeBrun wrote.
"The thought is that Seattle wouldn't want to pick up the rest of Price's hefty contract. But I guess we will see.
