Cammalleri Signs with Canadiens, 5 Years

According to Sportsnet’s trade tracker, Mike Cammalleri  has been signed by the Montreal Canadiens for 5 years, $6 million per year. 

Update 8:07 pm ET: From the Canadiens

The Habs weren’t the only NHL team trying to woo the shifty winger, who is coming off a career year with the Flames that saw him notch a career-high 39 goals and 82 points this past season.

“There were about four or five teams interested, but Bob Gainey showed interest right away,” admitted Cammalleri. “I’ve got a ton of respect for Bob Gainey and Jacques Martin. The Canadiens wanted me and showed me the commitment I was looking for.”

There’s that depth center the Habs have so coveted.

So the Habs now have 4 C’s under contract, and a total of 3 Wingers?  That’s it?

Wow.  Who’s going to put it in the net for them?

All they need now is Havlat and they’re set. Lang wouldn’t hurt either. But I don’t see them affording that.
