The deal begins in the 2025-26 season for Guhle, who becomes the third defenseman signed to a new contract by the Canadiens in the past two days. Arber Xhekaj inked a two-year, $2.6 million deal and Justin Barron signed a two-year, $2.3 million pact.

Guhle, 22, recorded 22 points (six goals, 16 assists), 178 blocked shots, 116 hits and 56 penalty minutes in 70 games last season.

He has totaled 40 points (10 goals, 30 assists) in 114 career games since being selected by Montreal with the 16th pick of the 2020 NHL Draft.
