In the last few minutes, the Montreal Canadiens players jumped on the ice for their morning practice of the day, in preparation for tonight's game against the New York Islanders, and the verdict was in for forward Mike Hoffman.
The rumor is confirmed. According to Luc Gélinas, he will be left out again:
"Martin St-Louis will return with the same lineup tonight against the NYIslanders, 11 forwards and seven defensemen.
Hoffman and Pezzetta left out again." - Luc Gélinas, RDS
It's starting to get serious for Hoffman, who has been out of the lineup four times in the last five games.
Will his contract be bought out by Kent Hughes? To be continued.
The same formula
So St. Louis will return with the same lineup as last Thursday, 11 forwards and 7 defensemen.
Michael Pezzetta will also be left out again.
See the official CH press release:
More details will follow.
