Toffoli gone: here are the new line combinations for the Habs, Gallagher's spot is a big surprise

Now that Tyler Toffoli is a Calgary Flames, head coach Martin St-Louis had to reconfigure his lines and designate a replacement to take Toffoli's spot.

Here are the new lines of the Habs:

Cole Caufield - Nick Suzuki - Josh Anderson

Mike Hoffman - Jake Evans - Paul Byron

Artturi Lehkonen - Ryan Poehling - Joel Armia

Rem Pitlick - Laurent Dauphin - Brendan Gallagher

Brett Kulak - Jeff Petry

Alexander Romanov - Corey Schueneman

Kale Clague - Chris Wideman

Samuel Montembeault will be the starter tonight.

We note: the absences of Michael Pezzetta and Cedric Paquette, the spot on the first pair for Petry, the big role given to Schueneman (at the request of the coach), Gallagher on the 4th, Caufield on the top line and Byron, who is back on the wing.
