His stint with the Canadiens was brief, as he only played 14 games with the main team, scoring three goals and one assist during this period. It will be interesting to see if Gustav Lindstrom will be able to get more opportunities with the Ducks in the coming weeks.
Although it's disappointing to see him go, this move allows Kent Hughes to free up an additional spot under the NHL's 50-contract limit. The general manager can thus take advantage of this to add a player at the trade deadline or even offer a contract to a prospect in the organization with the goal of bringing them up to the team at the end of the year.
