WASHINGTON - The Canadiens assigned forward Filip Mesar to the OHL's Kitchener Rangers on Saturday.

Mesar made his pro North American debut in Laval on Friday, finishing the night with two shots on goal and a minus-one differential in the Rocket's home opener.
The 18-year-old had also suited up for three preseason games with the Habs during training camp, registering a plus-two differential while averaging 12:53 of ice time.
Last season, Mesar picked up 16 points (8 goals, 8 assists) in 37 games with HK Poprad in the Slovak Extraliga. He was selected 26th overall by Montreal at the 2022 NHL Draft.
