Beautiful sequences of Ducharme with his players have been captured
The Montreal Canadiens' players stormed the rink late in the morning to warm up for Wednesday night's duel, as he faced the Bruins.
The combinations presented in this session looked a lot like yesterday's:
Hoffman - Suzuki - Lehkonen
Drouin - Dvorak - Armia
Dolphin - Poehling - Caufield
Paquette - Vejdemo - Pezzetta
Chiarot - Savard
Kulak - Petry
Niku - Wideman
Allen
Those who will not play: Josh Anderson, Tyler Toffoli, Jake Evans, Paul Byron, Alexander Romanov and Corey Schueneman.
That said, what I learned from this training is not the combinations, but rather the discussions that Dominique Ducharme had with some of his foals.
He chatted for several minutes with Romanov and Evans...
Also, he and Jonathan Drouin seem to have had a little run-in or a lively discussion, while Drouin seemed shocked.
Cayden Primeau, on the other hand, chatted at length with Eric Raymond, the Habs' goaltender coach.
In short, it looks like the boys will be well prepared for tonight, but it may still be difficult after this long COVID break.
