The Montreal Canadiens and Nashville Predators agreed on a trade on Wednesday night. The Predators are sending defenseman Alexandre Carrier to the Canadiens in exchange for defenseman Justin Barron.
The Predators announced the deal just before the NHL’s holiday roster freeze, which occurs on Thursday.
