What if Vegas sent Cody Glass to the Montreal Canadiens instead of Nick Suzuki?

Parallel universes are a funny thing, where Cody Glass gets sent from the Vegas Golden Knights to the Montreal Canadiens instead of Nick Suzuki.

Nobody's perfect, not even the Vegas Golden Knights

Reality can be a cruel mistress at times. While most of us would rather jump into a parallel universe portal and escape our current situation, we don't have that power (at least, not yet). Thus, Vegas Golden Knights fans must live with the reality that Nick Suzuki was traded to the Montreal Canadiens instead of Cody Glass.

That's part of the truth that is the following:

"There's no such thing as a perfect thing (unless it's Roberto's chicken tacos)."

If McPhee sent Glass to Montreal instead of Suzuki, it would've helped the team immensely.

Still, seeing Suzuki and Max Pacioretty play on the same team would've been fun. No trading for Nolan Patrick in a three-team deal. No panicking about losing five forwards during the 2024 free agency period. These things wouldn't have been magnified for the Golden Knights, giving fans hope for another Stanley Cup.

If McPhee sent Glass to Montreal instead of Suzuki, it would've helped the team immensely. However, it's not our reality and fans should still look forward to another hockey season. Besides, Cody Glass was eventually traded to the Nashville Predators in a three-team trade. So why cry over spilled milk and dwell in the past?
