It's official,
Bob Gainey has put his hands on Scott Gomez, 2-time Stanley Cup winner with the New Jersey Devils. Gomez comes from the Rangers to the Canadiens with forward Tom Pyatt, and defenseman Michael Busto, in exchange for Christopher Higgins, Ryan Macdonagh, Pavel Valentenko (who left the Canadiens for the KHL) and Doug Janik.

"We are extremely pleased to have acquired an impact centreman in Scott Gomez. He is an outstanding playmaker and an excellent skater. Having won the Stanley Cup twice with the New Jersey Devils, he brings a lot of playoff experience to our team. Scott is an elite player who will certainly contribute to the success of our team for years to come," said Bob Gainey.
