Latendresse, 22, has registered just two goals and one assist in 23 games with the Habs this season.
In 232 career NHL games with the Canadiens over four seasons, Latendresse has accumulated 48 goals and 37 assists for 85 points.
Pouliot, 23, has tallied two goals and two assists for four points in 14 games with the Wild this season.
