As part of his media availability today, along with general manager Kent Hughes, Canadiens forward Kirby Dach was asked about his decision to sign a four-year contract in Montreal (a pact worth $3.36 million). That's an unusual transitional contract.

His answer to the question is very interesting:

"If everything goes well and we're sitting here at the end of two years, I might leave some money on the table, but at the end of the day, it's about winning Stanley Cups and not about making a lot of money."

There you go, well said! The kind of answer that really makes fans happy:

He goes on and on, explaining his decision:

"I got to see the forward group here and the direction they went in when Marty [St. Louis] took over, how well they played, how free and offensive and fluid the game became - it was pretty exciting for me to have the opportunity to come here and play..."

"I thought the four years gave me more time to grow (as a person and as a player) and develop, especially with this team and where the management is headed. With the guys, we want to start building something."

Finally, the young center fielder confided that he finally feels 100%. He no longer has any problems with his wrist, which is completely healed.

Only positive things!
