Of course it would be Peter Holland.
Unhappy with his playing time as a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Holland was dealt to the Arizona Coyotes for a conditional sixth-round pick in 2018 back on Dec. 9.
As fate would have it, Holland's second game with the Coyotes was back in Toronto on Thursday, and the 25-year-old got the last laugh with a shootout winner past Frederik Andersen.
He was awarded the Coyotes' player of the game award for his efforts, capping off as good a night as he could have hoped for.
Peter Holland on scoring winner: "It seems like almost a bit of a storybook ending. You can't really script it much better than that."
