Now, with the acquisition of Dadonov, Matheson and the signing of Juraj Slafkovsky, Rem Pitlick and Samuel Montembeault, the Habs are officially in trouble.
Kent Hughes is $250,000 under the salary cap and must sign their new young player Kirby Dach.
Also, considering that the Canadiens GM is looking to acquire a right-handed defenseman for next season, there could be a lot of movement in the coming weeks.
The new two-year, one-way deal that Samuel Montembeault signed with the Canadiens is worth $1 million a year.
