The Montreal Canadiens agree to terms with forward Zack Bolduc on a four-year contract, with reported value at $16.8 million. The deal is expected to pay about $4.2 million per year, according to sources cited by The Athletic.
Both outlets describe the contract as a new agreement following Bolduc’s first season with Montreal. The Athletic adds context on performance, saying Bolduc has struggled to find consistent production in his debut campaign, but the team still believes he has the potential to develop into a top-six winger. NDTV similarly frames the signing as a new deal for the 23-year-old forward after his first season with the Canadiens.
Overall, the coverage aligns on the length of the contract, Bolduc’s age, and that it follows his inaugural season with Montreal, while The Athletic provides additional detail about his development expectations despite uneven early results.
