Montreal wouldn't accept. They're doing a favour to Arizona and the league. Maybe the next time Subban or Gallagher throw a dirty hit the league will look the other way. Or maybe Arizona will not claim a waiver or maybe they'll accept a future considerations trade to clear up a Montreal roster spot.
Obviously Arizona owes the league some major favours from all the owner uncertainties and years of financial worries, so this was their way of giving something back.
