New York Rangers rival and NHL veteran Max Pacioretty being targeted by three NHL organizations.

The 35-year old veteran, who spent last season with the Washington Capitals, has quite the reputation in the NHL as he's spent the last 16 years playing in the league.

Three teams Interested in Max Pacioretty

The San Jose Sharks, Montreal Canadiens, and Buffalo Sabres are the three NHL organizations actively looking for Pacioretty's skills.

The San Jose Sharks need an experienced player like Pacioretty, that could help benefit the organization through their rebuild stage.

With his strong leadership skills and scoring ability, he would be a perfect fit for their young core, providing the team with a veteran who can help with on ice performances and mentorship.

The Montreal Canadiens seem like the best option out of the three teams, as it would spark a reunion with Pacioretty and bring a familiar face back to the organization as he spent the first 10 seasons of his career with them.

As he was originally Drafted 22nd overall by the Montreal Canadiens during the 2007 NHL Entry Draft.

During that time he was known for his scoring prowess and leadership as a former captain, Pacioretty would add depth to the Canadiens third line and even their power play.

The Buffalo Sabres are looking to add Pacioretty as he is a seasoned forward who can greatly benefit their scoring depth.

As the Sabres aim to secure a playoff spot this upcoming season, his veteran presence on the third line and second power-play unit might just be what they need.

Max Pacioretty has played 902 NHL games, tallying 330 goals and 338 assists for a grand total of 668 points throughout his career.
