Kassian, 24, was acquired by the Canadiens last summer but did not play in a regular-season game for Montreal.
He was cleared to play in mid-December after spending more than two months in a substance abuse program. Kassian then cleared waivers and was assigned to AHL St. John’s.
The physical winger has 35 goals and 31 assists in 198 career NHL regular-season games.
