Canadiens Sign Defenceman Jayden Struble to Two-Year Deal
- The Montreal Canadiens signed defenceman Jayden Struble to a two-year, one-way contract extension worth $2.825 million on Monday.

- Selected by Montreal in the second round of the 2019 draft, Struble has participated in 112 NHL regular season contests, accumulating 23 points, and took part in a pair of playoff matchups facing Washington.
- Last season, Struble appeared in 56 games, contributing 13 points with 2 goals and 11 assists, placed fifth on the team in hits with a total of 124, and averaged close to 15 minutes of ice time per game.
- The signed deal is somewhat below his projected $3.57 million value, reflecting his role as a bottom-pairing defender who can serve as a versatile injury replacement.
