The Canadiens took care of two of their remaining three restricted free agents on Thursday, announcing the re-signings of forward Lucas Condotta and defenceman Nicolas Beaudin to two-way contracts.

Another day, another signing for the Canadiens.  This time, it’s their top draft pick putting pen to paper as the team announced that David Reinbacher has signed a three-year, entry-level contract.

Laval has added several pieces for next season, announcing the signings of four players on Monday – forwards Jared Davidson and Jakov Novak, defenceman Tobie Paquette-Bisson, and goaltender Strauss Mann. 

Ryan Leonard has played his way into top-ten consideration in the upcoming draft at the very least. Depending on who is still on the board when the Habs are picking overall, there’s a chance that he could be an option at the fifth selection.

If the four centres go with the first four picks in the draft and Montreal opts not to take Matvei Michkov, other players will need to be considered. Zach Benson, an undersized but highly skilled player, should be one that garners consideration.

The Habs had several junior-aged players under contract this past season, bringing the oft-mentioned ‘slide rule’ into play. In the end, five of the six players that had this potential outcome did see their deals slide and thus, their cap hit changing. Here is a breakdown of those changes.

If the Habs are looking to draft a centre with the fifth pick later this month and the top three middlemen are off the board, Slovakian centre Dalibor Dvorsky is sure to draw some consideration.
