Canadiens: Kaiden Guhle Sings Six-Year Contract Extension
The two-day signing spree for Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens continues.
The team announced on Wednesday that defenseman Kaiden Guhle has signed a six-year contract extension valued at $33.3 million or $5.55 million AAV.
Guhle is one of the more promising young defensive prospects in the organization, capable of playing on both sides of the ice. In 114 NHL games, he has racked up ten goals and 40 points as a Hab.
The news comes a day after the club signed both Arber Xhekaj (two-years $1.5 million AAV) and Justin Barron (two-years $1.15 AAV) to new contracts, solidifying the defensive core.
