The Montreal Canadiens made a big splash in front of a jubilant home crowd, making two trades that netted them center Kirby Dach.
Montreal sent defenseman Alexander Romanov and the 98th overall pick to the New York Islanders for the 13th overall pick in the first round. They then flipped the No. 13 pick and the 66th overall pick to the Chicago Blackhawks for Dach.
