Mikhail Sergachev

DETROIT - The Canadiens recalled defenseman Mikhail Sergachev from the OHL's Windsor Spitfires on Saturday on an emergency basis.

In 50 games in the Ontario Hockey League this season, the 18-year-old rearguard notched 10 goals and 33 assists -- picking up another three points in the playoffs before seeing his club eliminated last week. The Spitfires will host the Memorial Cup in May.
Earlier this season, the Canadiens' first-round pick from the 2016 NHL Draft suited up for three games with the big club, earning a plus-1 differential over that span.
