The offseason of 2019 has reached another milestone. The Montreal Canadiens sent out a number of qualifying offers to their pending restricted free agents while letting three of them walk. Since then, four of them have been signed to new contracts while Charles Hudon and Michael McCarron are still sitting on their initial offers from the Habs.
Issues came out from Hudon’s camp as the player rejected his offer from the team. Apparently, the fact that the contract was a two-way deal vs. a one-way deterred the 25-year-old from signing it. But with the Montreal Canadiens sending the QO out, the team still retains his rights whether he accepts it or not.
