Another major revelation from Jonathan Marchessault about the recent negotiation

The Québécois has finally signed a 5-year deal worth a total of $27.5 million with the Nashville Predators. The announcement came shortly after Steven Stamkos' signing with the Preds.

In interviews with RDS and TVA Sports, Marchessault stated that the Canadiens were on his list and even his second choice after Nashville. It came very close to materializing with the Montreal organization.

It's also revealed that the Golden Knights had offered the same total amount as the Predators for the winner of the Conn Smythe Trophy in 2023.

However, the distribution of money was different in Las Vegas. The Knights likely wanted to find a way to unevenly spread the amount over the years.

The Quebec Remparts product and his agent were not pleased. Ultimately, it seems his decision had to be made between Nashville and Montreal. You know the outcome...
