Short, but sweet.
That appears to be how Alexander Radulov will remember his time with the Montreal Canadiens after the Russian forward signed a five-year deal with the Dallas Stars on Monday.
I want to thank @CanadiensMTL fans, team and organization for a great year. Your passion and energy are amazing... (1/2) pic.twitter.com/H0guUrk5Si

Radulov decided to return to the NHL last summer after spending the previous several seasons in the KHL. He registered 18 goals and 36 assists during his brief stint in Montreal, and became a fan favorite along the way.
The winger was rewarded with term and a hefty raise from the Stars, reportedly turning down a similar offer from Montreal after having already agreed to sign with Dallas.
