However, Wideman wouldn't leave this deal empty handed last night, in an interview with Tomas Prokop, Slafkovsky revealed he's going to hook up Wideman.
"First and foremost, we're trying to create an environment and a culture where he can feel welcome with the team," said Wideman, who will wear No. 6 starting next season. "He's a young guy, and I wanted to make sure he knows that we're excited to have him with us and that we're going to make this an environment where he can reach his full potential and become a really good player in this league." - Chris Wideman, Via Montreal Canadiens website
