Alexandre Texier likely to sign with Canadiens
Alexandre Texier is soon to be an unrestricted free agent, and while it appears as many as nine teams have reached out and expressed an interest in signing him, it seems he’s made his choice on where he’ll play next.
TSN’s Pierre LeBrun reports that Texier’s agent, Dan Milstein, plans to have calls with two teams on Sunday once Texier becomes a free agent. He adds that the Montreal Canadiens are one of those two teams. Meanwhile, Elliotte Friedman reported on Saturday’s Headlines, “The word around the league right now…the favorite is absolutely the Montreal Canadiens.” Nothing is yet official, but he noted, “All eyes are on Montreal for Texier.”
