Stu Cowan: Chris Wideman very thankful for time spent with Canadiens

Chris Wideman was a forgotten man with the Canadiens this season. Before the start of training camp last September, the Canadiens announced that the veteran defenceman would be out indefinitely with a back injury. Wideman, who turned 34 in January, wasn't heard from again — apart from a couple of brief chats in the media lounge during intermissions of games at the Bell Centre.
