The Montreal Canadiens are beginning their offseason grunt work, and have already signed a core piece when they locked up Cole Caufield to an eight-year contract extension. They have also inked Michael Pezzetta to a two-year deal.
While they have been negotiating with a few NHL players, the organization has not forgotten about their American Hockey League affiliate. The Laval Rocket will be looking to build a deeper team next season and got their offseason work started already as well.
The Rocket announced they have signed defenseman Olivier Galipeau to a contract extension.
