Montreal Canadiens former players that are free agents and should be signed by someone soon.

The Montreal Canadiens had a handful of pending free agents during the 2019-20 NHL season. However, as the trade deadline approached, most of them were shipped out of town for draft picks.

General Manager Marc Bergevin dealt pretty much every player who had an expiring contract and built up his draft capital as much as he could.

Out were Marco Scandella, Ilya Kovalchuk, Nate Thompson, Nick Cousins and even Matthew Peca who was playing for the Laval Rocket.
