Canadiens, Cousins agree to 1-year deal
by Josh Wegman from on (#4JK19)
The Montreal Canadiens have agreed to terms with free-agent center Nick Cousins on a one-year, $1-million contract, the team announced Friday.
Cousins tallied a career-high 27 points in 81 games with the Arizona Coyotes last season. He added 115 hits and 39 takeaways while posting a 49.8 Corsi For percentage at even strength.
The 25-year-old will provide the Habs with depth down the middle of the ice. Max Domi, Phillip Danault, Jesperi Kotkaniemi, and Ryan Poehling are currently projected to be the club's top four centers.
