While young goaltender Cayden Primeau took many media outlets by surprise when he performed the starting goaltender routine this morning, and while all indications were that he would be playing tonight against the Nashville Predators, head coach Martin St-Louis has just provided an update.
Samuel Montembeault will be the starting goalie tonight.
Logic is finally being respected. Why did Primeau do the starting goalie routine? Excellent question, but it proves that you can't always rely on that.
"I deleted the previous tweet to avoid confusion: it's Samuel Montembeault who will be in front of the Canadiens net tonight."
