| Canadiens fans show up in force for Jaroslav Halak farewell (SportingNews.com) |
| Montreal Canadiens fans turned out in force Saturday to salute Stanley Cup playoffs hero Jaroslav Halak at a farewell autograph session. Halak, who helped the Habs reach the Eastern Conference finals last spring, was traded in the offseason to the St. Louis Blues. That didn't deter Canadiens followers, as the Canadian Press reports more than 5,000 arrived for the appearance. Because of the crowd, the session was extended by 90 minutes from the scheduled two hours. |

| Canadiens Team Report (Yahoo! Sports) |
| Goaltender Carey Price hasn't signed his new contract with the Canadiens, but the team is doing everything in its power to make sure that he knows he is No. 1.
The latest move came when the Canadiens traded Cedrick Desjardins, a second-team all-star in the American Hockey League last season, to the Tampa Bay Lightning for the NHL rights to Karri Ramo.
The Canadiens are telling people that they believe that the 26-year-old has gone as far as he can in his development, but they've also eliminated a possible source of controversy. If the Canadiens ran into injury problems in goal, Desjardins would be the logical choice for a call-up. If Desjardins were to put together a couple of wins and Price struggled, as he has in the last two seasons, there might a popular sentiment for... |

| Carey Price signs extension with Canadiens (SportingNews.com) |
| Carey Price, who played second fiddle to Jaroslav Halak last spring during the Montreal Canadiens' surprising playoff run to the Stanley Cup finals, has agreed to a two-year contract extension with the team. Price likely will inherit the starting job entering the season, thanks to an offseason deal that sent Halak to the St. Louis Blues for two prospects. The trade created controversy with the postseason hero being shipped out in favor of the team’s underachieving goalie of the future. |

| Niklas Kronwall has surgery; doctors find meniscus tear (SportingNews.com) |

| Red Wings D Niklas Kronwall could face knee surgery (SportingNews.com) |

Ken Holland says the problem appears to be minor and has been checked by doctors in Sweden, where Kronwall is training, and in the U.S. "He started to skate three weeks ago and felt some discomfort," Holland told Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

| Andrei Markov pushing recovery from knee surgery (SportingNews.com) |
| Montreal Canadiens defenseman Andrei Markov appears to be ahead of schedule in his recovery from knee surgery, according to Canada's Rogers Sportsnet's website. Markov was injured April 30 during the Stanley Cup playoffs. He had surgery May 18 and began an expected six-month rehab. A quick healer, Markov has resumed skating and could rejoin the Habs in December, rather than February as expected, Sportsnet.ca reports, citing comments from Markov's agent. |
