Dale Weise: Will hit open market
The Canadiens aren't going to re-sign Dale Weise, which means he'll hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent Oct. 9, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.Weise only appeared in 23 games with the Canadiens in 2019-20, picking up five points over that span. He's already expressed that he wants to play in the NHL in 2020-21, but he may have to settle for a two-way deal in order to do so.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Fills in for Thompson
Dale Weise filled in for Nate Thompson (illness) on the fourth line in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to Dallas. He had two shots, five hits and one blocked shot over 11:48 of ice time.Thompson missed his first game of the season due to the flu, so Weise drew into the lineup after being a healthy scratch the previous four contests. The Montreal Canadiens lost their fourth straight and fell farther behind in the race for a postseason berth. That's a situation that could lead to a youth movement, in which players like Weise are replaced by a prospect such as Ryan Poehling or Jesperi Kotkaniemi.

Dale Weise scored a goal in a 4-2 loss to the Capitals on Monday.Recently recalled from AHL Laval, Weise scored his first goal of the season at the NHL level. Considering the veteran winger is likely to be sent down once Montreal gets some of its regulars back in the lineup, steer clear of Weise in all fantasy formats.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Demoted to bus league
Dale Weise was sent down to AHL Laval on Sunday.Weise will head to the minors to get some extra work in while the Montreal Canadiens are off until Jan. 27. He will likely be brought back to the big club after the All-Star break unless Brendan Gallagher (head), Paul Byron (knee), or Jonathan Drouin (wrist) are ready to get back into action.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Helps familiar face in win
Dale Weise had two assists, one shot, four hits and one blocked shot over 9:10 of ice time in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Golden Knights.The Montreal Canadiens have been in the offensive doldrums the last few weeks, but they got depth scoring from their fourth line Saturday. Weise set up both goals by Nick Cousins, which may not come as a shock when considering the two played together in Philadelphia. The assists give Weise three points (all assists) in nine games since his call-up from AHL Laval. With Montreal heading to its bye week, the expectation is that both Jonathan Drouin (wirst) and Paul Byron (knee) could return for the team's next game, Jan. 27, at home against Washington. Add in the potential return of Brendan Gallagher (head) and it's clear to see Weise's stay in the NHL may have ended with Saturday's two-point night.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Earns first helper of 2019-20
Dale Weise recorded an assist in Monday's 2-0 win over the Flames.The helper on Jordan Weal's first-period tally was Weise's first point in 15 games to start his second stint with the Montreal Canadiens, dating back to last season. The 31-year-old winger has supplied 16 hits and seven PIM in six outings this year, but it's unlikely he'll do enough on the scoresheet to merit fantasy attention.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Placed on waivers
Dale Weise was placed on waivers by Montreal on Thursday for the purpose of reassignment, Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette reports.Weise was acquired by the Montreal Canadiens for the playoff drive last season but played just nine games and was held out of the final 13 contests as a healthy scratch. He enjoyed his most productive NHL seasons as a member of the Canadiens in 2014 and 2015, but he was not a fit in this latest iteration. If not claimed by another NHL team by noon Friday, Weise will report to AHL Laval.
