The Canadiens traded Kassian to the Oilers on Monday in exchange for goalie Ben Scrivens.

Analysis:

Kassian refused to report to the Canadiens' AHL team, so the team was forced to move him. Kassian has had a trying season, and the Oilers will try to see if they can get him back on track. He will begin his Oilers stint with the club's AHL team, assuming he does not refuse that assignment as well.
