The Montreal Canadiens have plenty of pending free agents following the 2020-21 season. When can they re-sign those players?

The Montreal Canadiens would normally be just hitting the quietest time of the year. The first day of July is usually free agent frenzy when we see players sign overpriced contracts with new teams minutes after they officially hit the open market.

Though there are always hundreds of free agents signed in July, most of them are signed within the first couple days of the month.
