Indeed, according to his information, only a few details remain to be settled before an agreement is officially announced. He also mentions that the 22-year-old is expected to sign a contract in the coming days, likely early next week.
This is excellent news for the Tricolore as the forward could, undoubtedly, flourish in Montreal and thus become a real bargain for the organization.
Let's remember that according to information reported by Eric Engels of Sportsnet, Alex Newhook is expected to put his signature on a contract similar to that of Kirby Dach. It would therefore not be surprising if he signs a four-season contract at an annual salary of around three to four million dollars.
Alex Newhook was selected 16th in the 2019 draft, having scored 30 points in 82 games last season, while playing only 14 minutes per game on a second or third line.
