This summer, there was a major transaction between the Golden Knights and the Hurricanes, when Max Pacioretty was literally given to Carolina for future considerations. Considering the price Vegas paid to acquire the number 67, this trade shocked the hockey world, especially the fans in Montreal, who laughed in their faces. That said, Pacioretty had surgery on his Achilles heel in August and was expected to miss six months of activity. True to form, Max will likely return early as he has begun training with his teammates. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/ice_chip/status/1603073155123347456?t=c1nV_EBoJPO5lbk7-pWJFg&s=19'> </a></blockquote></div> This means that Patch will potentially return to the game two months before the established date. This is huge! Of course, the forward was wearing a non-contact jersey, but it's still impressive.
