The Montreal Canadiens are reportedly leading the race to sign unrestricted free agent Alex Texier, a twenty-six-year-old forward recently available after his contract was terminated by the St. Louis Blues. Texier, known for his strong skating and playmaking abilities, is expected to provide much-needed support at the center position, where the Canadiens have been struggling due to injuries. If signed, Texier would offer head coach Martin St-Louis an additional option, easing the pressure on current centers and bolstering the teams lineup.
