The Montreal Canadiens have come to terms with undrafted free agent forward Alexandre Alain on an entry level contract. Per the terms of the CBA, the agreement has to be a three-year deal. Tony Marinaro was the first to break the news.
Alain is a 6’2” overage player for the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada. As team captain, he has put up some significant numbers this season, 44 goals and 87 points in 65 games, while playing alongside QMJHL leading scorer Alex Barré-Boulet. Alain finished third in regular season league scoring, but is dominating the playoffs, leading the QMJHL in points (19) and goals (11).
