The Montreal Canadiens' offseason is under way, and general manager Marc Bergevin is busy filling out the depth chart.
He made his first signing on June 17 by re-signing winger Dale Weise to a two-year contact. Terms of the deal were not released, but CapGeek.com reports it to be worth an unconfirmed $1 million per season.
The Weise signing means that Bergevin has filled one hole on his depth chart, but there is still plenty more work to be done. The GM is likely weighing his options with both Brian Gionta and Mike Weaver before July 1, but even if he does sign them, he will still need to plug a few roster spots via free agency.
In addition to a scoring winger, the Habs could use a few more depth players, both up front and on defense, to round out the roster.
Here are some depth players, not including Gionta and Weaver, who the Montreal Canadiens should chase in free agency.
