While it's believed that this is the only major acquisition for the upcoming season-and indeed it is-let's not forget the return of Kirby Dach to the lineup.
Indeed, the second-line center is back, and it's now official, as evidenced by his presence on the ice with his teammates and, most importantly, in a regular jersey!
It's crucial not to get overly excited and assume that the Canadiens will make the playoffs this year or be contenders for major honors. However, it is equally wrong to think that there won't be any progress.
Kirby Dach has the potential to exceed 50 points, and Patrik Laine can score more than 70. With these two players on the second line and on the power play, it will be very promising and exciting.
The challenge for Kirby Dach will now be to stay healthy, something he's struggled with since the start of his career.
