Jordan Weal News

Weal is back in the Canadiens lineup on Saturday.

Weal was supposed to be a healthy scratch this afternoon but Joel Armia is a late-scratch and Weal will be back in on the third-line. He has one goal on 15 shots and one assist in six games this season.

The Canadiens have acquired Jordan Weal from the Coyotes for Michael Chaput.

Weal started the season in Philadelphia before joining the Coyotes mid-season. Overall, the 26-year-old has four goals and seven assists (11 points) in 47 games with the two teams. Weal will likely serve as a depth piece with the Canadiens and should draw onto the fourth-line.
