We have just learned that for tonight's game against the Washington Capitals, the Habs will be without the services of forward Paul Byron.
We are told that, in Byron's case, we are talking about an "accumulation of minor injuries". Tyler Pitlick will take his place in the Tricolore's lineup.
Also note a major change in front of the net as, unsurprisingly, Carey Price gives up his place to Quebecer Samuel Montembeault.
"Martin St-Louis confirms that Tyler Pitlick will take Paul Byron's place in the lineup. Samuel Montembeault will be in front of the net against the Capitals." - Montreal Canadiens
