Kreider Headlines Canadiens’ One-Year, Cap-Savvy Pickup

Kreider Headlines Canadiens’ One-Year, Cap-Savvy Pickup

Veteran forward Chris Kreider signed a one-year contract with the Montreal Canadiens worth $2.15 million, with performance bonuses potentially pushing the total to $5.4 million. The move reunites him with Canadiens coach Martin St. Louis and GM Jeff Gorton, and fills a second-line need opposite Ivan Demidov while offering cap flexibility. Kreider is expected to attack with speed and forechecking on the left wing, likely alongside Demidov and either Alex Newhook or Oliver Kapanen, with limited anticipated power-play usage. The signing comes amid a reshaping of Montreal’s forward group, and Hall of Fame-bound goaltender Carey Price will be honored in a Nov. 10 pre-game ceremony at the Bell Centre.

The Carolina Hurricanes routed the Montreal Canadiens 6-1 in Game 5 to win the Eastern Conference Final and advance to the Stanley Cup Final against Vegas. Carolina built a commanding lead with three first-period goals (Robinson, Stankoven, Hall), extended it to 5-0 by the middle of the second thanks to Gostisbehere and Blake, and sealed the win with an empty-netter from Seth Jarvis as Frederik Andersen steadied the Hurricanes in net. Montreal spoiled the shutout late with Cole Caufield’s power-play goal, but Carolina dominated the game and the series to reach the Cup Final for the first time since 2006.
