We told you about it this morning, there was an important news today concerning the Canadiens' defensive brigade. In anticipation of the game against the Ottawa Sens (at 7pm tonight at the Bell Centre), against all odds, Jeff Petry was present for the day's practice. (with a non-contact jersey)
Despite this good news, we suspected it with the non-contact jersey, but Petry will not be inserted in the lineup tonight.
On the other hand, Martin St-Louis has just announced some important decisions on the blue line. Chris Wideman, Kale Clague and William Lagesson will again be left out.
It's another disappointment for Wideman, who was playing good hockey, but who is being left with some dynamic new young talent. So you see, head coach St-Louis has confirmed that both Justin Barron and Jordan Harris will be back in the lineup. I love it!
Can't wait to see them in action tonight. Do you like the decision?
