The 27-year-old signed with Pittsburgh before this season began after getting a professional tryout with the team at training camp. He started 2023-24 in the AHL with the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins, but has since played 11 games in the NHL, failing to hit the scoresheet. White will likely be in the Habs lineup tonight as the team is facing the Penguins in Pittsburgh.
Meanwhile, with the pickup of White, the Canadiens have placed another forward on waivers to send him back to Laval.
