Dale Weise: Signs overseas
Weise inked a one-year contract with Swedish club IK Oskarshamn on Monday, per agent Nick Riopel.
Weise didn't play anywhere during the 2020-21 season but will be headed to Europe for the first time in his professional career. At this point, Weise is likely done playing in the NHL, which would see him eventually retire having appeared in 513 games in which he tallied 55 goals and 70 assists.

Dale Weise: Will hit open market
The Canadiens aren't going to re-sign 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
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 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.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Pots first goal of 2019-20
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: Summoned to big club
Weise was recalled from AHL Laval on Sunday.
Weise spent the NHL All-Star break with AHL Laval but will rejoin Montreal before Monday's tilt against Washington. The 31-year-old forward has three assists in nine games at the NHL level this season.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Demoted to bus league
Weise was sent down to AHL Laval on Sunday.
Weise will head to the minors to get some extra work in while the 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
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 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
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 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: Rises to big club
The Canadiens recalled Weise from AHL Laval on Wednesday.
Brendan Gallagher sustained an upper-body injury in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes, so Weise will add depth to the forward corps for Thursday's matchup against the Lightning. Weise played 51 NHL games between the Canadiens and Flyers last year, generating 11 points.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Placed on waivers
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 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.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Recalled to parent club
Weise was called up from AHL Laval on Monday, TSN reports.
Weise was sent down to the minors Feb. 17, and it didn't take long for him to receive a promotion. The 30-year-old has provided a physical presence for the Canadiens this campaign, racking up 11 points and 70 hits in 45 games. Though he was recalled, it's unclear whether he will suit up in Tuesday's game against Detroit.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Moved to minors
The Canadiens shifted Weise to AHL Laval on Tuesday.
Weise has provided the Canadiens with some valuable physical play as a bottom-six forward recently, but the veteran winger will give up his spot on the roster for the return of Paul Byron (forearm) from a multi-week absence. Weise should remain among the first names considered for recall should injuries arise up front.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Active Thursday
Weise had two shots, blocked a shot and picked up a minor penalty over 10:39 of ice time in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Predators.
Weise, who was recently acquired from the Flyers, was active in the first game since being recalled from AHL Laval. He's part of a reconstituted fourth line that coach Claude Julien hopes brings a bit of scoring depth to the club and prevents opponents from scoring. By that second standard, the fourth line was successful Thursday.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Practices on fourth line
Weise skated on the fourth line at Tuesday's practice, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports.
The Canadiens revamped their fourth line over the weekend, trading for Weise (from Philadelphia) and Nate Thompson (from Los Angeles). That duo replaced Kenny Agostino and Michael Chaput. The flurry of activity happened immediately following Saturday's loss to Toronto, in which Montreal's fourth line allowed the Leafs' first two goals. The original trio hadn't scored since since Dec. 29, a span of 18 games. The Habs hope Weise and Thompson can improve the fourth line.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Promoted to NHL
Weise was recalled from AHL Laval on Monday.
It didn't take long for Montreal to summon Weise, who was with the team for the parts of three seasons before he was traded to Philadelphia back in 2016. Now back with the Habs, Weise will hope to carve out a permanent NHL role as a bottom-six forward. In 42 games this season with the Flyers, Weise had five goals and 11 points.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Stuck in minors
Weise remains in the minors with AHL Laval, despite having been acquired via trade by Montreal on Saturday, Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports.
Weise was playing with AHL Lehigh Valley when he was flipped to the Habs and has been assigned to the Rocket, rather than reporting to Montreal. The winger could still be promoted ahead of Thursday's clash with Nashville if Paul Byron (forearm) remains unavailable.

Canadiens' Dale Weise: Reuniting with Habs
The Flyers dealt Weise and Christian Folin to the Canadiens for David Schlemko and Byron Froese on Saturday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.
Weise's four-year, $9.4 million deal with the Flyers will expire after the 2019-20 season. He's a journeyman with 54 goals and 66 assists under his belt through 481 career games between five NHL clubs, including the Habs from 2013-16.

Flyers' Dale Weise: Demoted to Phantoms
Weise was sent down to AHL Lehigh Valley on Sunday, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
The 30-year-old will not be subject to waivers this time around and will instead report immediately to the Flyers' AHL affiliate. In 42 games with Philadelphia this season, Weise has scored five goals and recorded 11 points while averaging 12:08 of ice time per game.

Flyers' Dale Weise: Clears waivers, staying with club
Weise won't be headed down to AHL Lehigh Valley right away after clearing waivers Wednesday, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.
Weise won't be suiting up versus the Bruins on Wednesday and will serve as a healthy scratch. While the club could opt to keep him on the 23-man long term, it will have to send the Winnipeg native to the minors within 30 days or he will need to be placed on waivers again.

Flyers' Dale Weise: Waived by Philadelphia
The Flyers placed Weise on waivers Tuesday.
Weise has gone scoreless in his last nine appearances while averaging just 10:55 of ice time over that span, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. In the likely scenario that he goes unclaimed, the veteran forward will almost certainly be sent to Philadelphia's AHL affiliate.
