The strong shift of NHLers towards Europe continues. The latest player to make a move is the Montreal Canadiens' own Max Pacioretty, who has recently joined HC Ambri-Piotta according to The Fourth Period. RDS also confirms the news on their site.
Elsewhere, the Swedish Elite League was compelled to allow NHL players join its league by Anti-Trust authorities there.
As such, some players have begun making the move to the Scandinavian nation as well.
