He had access to some privileged information

Karl Alzner was one coveted UFA at the deadline. He reportedly had plenty of offer on the table before choosing to sign with the Montreal Canadiens.

From my understanding, it used to be just kind of the day before pretty much you’d get a bunch of calls from teams and you almost had teams just going against each other trying to give the best offers out,” explained Alzner. “You’d have multiple offers on the table and you’d have to kind of quickly pick something." said Alzner during a Wednesday morning radio interview on Calgary’s Sportsnet 960.

Why did he choose Montreal? Well, the Star defenseman hinted at potentially major trade following having access to some privileged information.

I wanted to know that and it sounds like everything is going in the right direction. They have their eye on a couple of pieces that are going to help the team. And then obviously locking up Carey Price is a huge step because he’s one of the best goalies in the league and one of the best ones we’ve seen in a long time."
