Merrill signs a free agent deal elsewhere

Check it out:

Merrill played 13 regular season games and 13 playoff games for the Montreal Canadiens this spring/summer after being acquired from the Detroit Red Wings at the trade deadline.

Merrill joins a Wild blueline that features Jared Spurgeon, Jonas Brodin, Matt Dumba and other new additions Dmitry Kulikov and Alex Goligoski. Merrill will likely play down the lineup behind those above mentioned defensemen, but he provides the team with some solid depth at a cheap price.
