Here are the lineups presented by Montreal Canadiens head coach Martin St-Louis during today's morning practice.
There is a small change on the second line, but it is easy to explain.
"Recall the absence of Gallagher (treatments)
Caufield-Suzuki-Dach
Hoffman-Dvorak-Anderson
Drouin-Monahan-Dadonov
Pezzetta-Evans-Armia
Defensemen:
Guhle-Savard
Edmundson-Xhekaj
Harris-Kovacevic
Matheson-Wideman (extras)
Goalies:
Allen
Montembeault"
These are the likely trios and duos for tomorrow's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins. (Most likely replacing Anderson, with Gallagher) Hopefully Brendan Gallagher is OK to play.
Let's also remember that Mike Matheson was indeed back at practice, with his teammates, wearing a non-contact jersey, and that he is really close to a return to the game.
More details to follow!
