The 30-year old left handed Schlemko went undrafted and carries a $2.1 million cap hit.
Thoughts from the media …
Cap Friendly: “After acquiring Schlemko and his $2.1M cap hit, we now have the #Habs with roughly $21,012,023 in projected cap space moving forward.”
Pierre LeBrun: “Habs get David Schlemko from Vegas. Solid pickup. Good skater, good contract”
Eric Engles: “No doubt #Canadiens are still in the market for a defenceman, even after the Schlemko acquisition.
