{allcanada} Canadiens agree to deal with defenceman Rinat Valiev

 

The Montreal Canadiens have agreed to terms with defenceman Rinat Valiev on a one-year, two-way contract for the 2018-19 season, the team announced Thursday.

The 22-year-old blue-liner's deal is worth $650,000 at the NHL level, and $80,000 in AHL salary, with an additional $105,000 guaranteed.

Valiev was acquired in the deal with the Toronto Maple Leafs that sent Tomas Plekanec to the Leafs on Feb. 25.

A native of Nizhnekamsk, Russia, Valiev had only appeared in two games with the Canadiens before suffering a leg injury. Prior to that, Valiev had played 45 games with the Toronto Marlies and the Laval Rocket in the AHL, netting six goals and 18 points during that time.

Valiev has 54 points (13G, 41A) in 154 career AHL games. He was the Maple Leafs' third-round pick (68th overall) at the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.
