The Montreal Canadiens and forward Rafael Harvey-Pinard agreed to a two-year contract extension worth $2.2 million on Monday.
Harvey-Pinard, 24, was a seventh-round draft selection by Montreal in 2019 and found a home at the NHL level last season.
After breaking into the league in 2021-22, playing in four games, the 5-foot-9, 181-pound winger appeared in 34 games last season, as coach Martin St. Louis utilized him in several different line combinations.
Harvey-Pinard finished with six goals and 37 points as the Canadiens failed to make the postseason. The Quebec native also blocked 58 shots.
