Signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Canadiens in June of 2022.
Signs two-way deal
Leskinen inked a one-year, two-way contract with Montreal on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Leskinen spent two seasons playing primarily for AHL Laval, appearing in just six NHL contests, before heading to Europe last season in the hopes of revitalizing his career. In 45 games for Jokerit (KHL) and Tappara (Finland), the 25-year-old defenseman garnered eight goals and 15 helpers, evidently showing the Habs enough to warrant giving him another shot in North America.
