In the last few hours, the Montreal Canadiens organization has announced the signing of two goaltenders.
They will obviously play in Laval or Trois-Rivières, but they will bring an interesting depth to the organization.
"The Laval Rocket announced Sunday that the team has agreed to terms on a one-season contract (2022-2023 - AHL, two prongs) with goalies Philippe Desrosiers and Joe Vrbetic." - Laval Rocket
Vrbetic, 19, is a seventh-round pick of the CH in 2021. He has maintained a 2.87 goals-against average and .906 save percentage in 45 OHL games.(In 2021-22)
Desrosiers, 26, is from St. Hyacinthe and was drafted 54th overall in 2013 by the Dallas Stars. In 2021-22, he played with the Trois-Rivières Lions (34 games in the ECHL) and the Manitoba Moose (4 games in the AHL).
