Lol, did Vegas not think to double check with the NHL office or with Dadonov himself to make sure? It's not like this is some super secret list. This just smells like Vegas doing damage control and trying to push the blame to another organization for their own eff up.
It's not Ottawa's responsibility to make sure Dadonov is tradeable to a specific team or not after that player is out of their organization. It's on Vegas. It doesn't matter what Ottawa told Vegas. At the end of the day, it's their own fault they didn't check properly.
