Two last-minute announcements from the Canadiens, one of which is a surprise
In the last few minutes, while head coach Martin St-Louis was notably at a press conference live from the team's hotel in St. Louis, the organization made two announcements, including a nice surprise.
Firstly, this.
"Martin St-Louis confirms that Samuel Montembeault will start Saturday against the Blues."
Montreal Canadiens And secondly, a nice surprise.
Even though it didn't look good, painful and serious yesterday, everything indicates that the Quebec forward Rafaël Harvey-Pinard has avoided a serious injury.
We love it.
"The status of Rafaël Harvey-Pinard is being evaluated on a daily basis (lower body)."
Montreal Canadiens
Very good news under the circumstances that he is only "Day to Day".
Details will follow.
See the full press points.
