The Montreal Canadiens have added another intriguing piece to their blue line, signing Reilly Walsh to a one-year, two-way contract.
On today’s episode of The Starr & D’Amico Show, we break down everything Canadiens fans need to know about Walsh, the former New Jersey Devils prospect who spent last season in the KHL, where he finished among the league’s highest-scoring defensemen.
Is this simply organizational depth for the Laval Rocket, or could Kent Hughes have uncovered another undervalued right-shot defenseman with offensive upside?
We’ll discuss:
🏒 Who Reilly Walsh is
🏒 Why Kent Hughes targeted him
🏒 What Walsh brings offensively
🏒 Where he fits on the Canadiens’ organizational depth chart
🏒 His chances of making the NHL roster
🏒 Whether this signing is more important than it appears
Could this turn into another savvy value signing by Montreal?

Many of these young defenceman must be traded.
Training camp is gonna be nuts
Could be nice if u guys gave more insight on bryce pickford and whts to be expected next season with laval his injury etc. Ik u guys alrdy talked abt it like 2 months back but it could be intresting
I read "Habs sign a new player. Hidden gem" and thought: "Well, another clickbait fake rumor video (sigh)."… Then I saw the "Starr and D'Amico show" icon and instantly rejoiced! Here are the REAL news!
Reinbacher will start the season with the Habs… and most importantly he brings size on the right side.
The recent acquisitions are of small stature…
🤣he is no hidden Gem. He'll be in the AHL for some time, we have enough defenseman more NHL ready.
Is Bryce Pickford the next 2025-2026 Raddysh?
Heartless would be excellent for this year while Hage finishes school.
Must be a very slow summer if we're wasting our time talking about a 2 way D …
This video seems like a stretch guys.
The only relevant question at this point on D is whether management believes Hutson has improved enough as a defender that he can shelter a rookie coming into the league. Or I guess whether Matheson could do that and give us Hutson/Dobson full time… And what they can get in a trade for Struble/Engstrom/other/.
So,laval is going to play without a coach this season???
Walsh's usefulness with the team will depend on his performance at training camp,
and whether St. Louis has finally gotten away from coaching his defenseless style of hockey.
Engstom regrettable is sitting at the bottom of a long list of left shot defencemen in Montreal.
Go HABs.
