Montreal Canadiens re-signed restricted free agent, right wing Sven Andrighetto(42) to a one-year, one-way contract extension as he heads into his fourth season with the organization.
The small but speedy with good hands forward split his time with the big club and new affiliate St. John’s IceCaps in 2015/2016, but ended up appearing in a career high 44 NHL games scoring a new best 7 goals and 10 assists for 18 points with a +1 rating on a non-playoff contending squad.
The 23-year old was a late training camp cut before being sent to the minors to start last campaign but looks to find a permanent roster spot and increase his overall stats in the upcoming year.
