Today, it was announced that the Montreal Canadiens have claimed Colin White off waivers, marking a significant addition to their roster.
White, who was the 21st overall selection in the 2015 draft, had previously been bought out by the Ottawa Senators last year. His acquisition by the Canadiens is notably strategic, given his past representation by Montreal's General Manager Kent Hughes, suggesting a well-considered move by the organization.
In a separate development, the Canadiens have also placed forward Brandon Gignac on waivers, indicating further adjustments to their team composition.
