The Montreal Canadiens made big news yesterday in the midst of the NHL’s hiatus from on-ice action. They signed one of their best prospects, Alexander Romanov, to an entry-level contract. The Russian defenceman was not the only player that inked a deal with the Habs though.
Liam Hawel didn’t get the headlines that Romanov did, but he will bring some solid organizational depth that was desperately lacking this season.
