GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) Max Domi heard the rumors that the Arizona Coyotes might trade him this offseason. Even so, when learning he was being sent to Montreal for Alex Galchenyuk, the news came as a bit of a shock.

"I'm really excited to start the new chapter," Domi said during a conference call Saturday. "Of course I was a little bit shocked, but it's a lot of emotion, some sadness, and mostly excitement and goodness. So I can't wait to get started. I'm absolutely pumped."

Domi at least heard the news firsthand. Galchenyuk found out on flight to Italy for vacation when he used the plane's Wi-Fi to check Twitter.
