The Montreal Canadiens haven't forgotten about pending free-agent defenseman Andrei Markov. After failing to get anything done before the trade deadline in March, Markov and the Canadiens will reportedly resume contract talks soon.
Andrei Markov did not change his mind. He still wants to finish his career in MTL. Talks will resume in the next few days. #tvasports
