Canadiens call press conference and the Oilers prepare to announce surprise acquisition today
We have some action today in the National Hockey League, as training camps officially kick off, especially here in Montreal.
On this occasion, the Canadiens organization has just called a press conference with head coach Martin St-Louis.
This will be the first one for the 2024-2025 season, aside from the one at the golf tournament, so it will be really interesting to see what the coach has to say this morning.
Martin St-Louis' Press Conference at 11:30 AM
It's starting!
«We're back! Happy opening day of the Montreal Canadiens training camp to everyone!
The players will report to Brossard for medical and physical exams, and head coach Martin St-Louis is expected to speak around 11:30 AM ET today for a press conference.»
- Priyanta Emrith
We'll keep you posted with the details.
Also, a press conference expected in Edmonton
As the Edmonton Oilers also kick off their training camp today, and with their own press conference announcement, theirs is shaping up to be particularly interesting to follow.
Here's why.
«It looks like there will be a surprise and unexpected addition to the Edmonton Oilers' lineup when it's announced at 8:30 AM MT this morning. Stay tuned.»
- Mark Spector, Edmonton reporter
The Sportsnet reporter isn't saying this lightly. So, expect the Edmonton Oilers to announce an «unexpected» acquisition in the next few minutes, around 10:30 AM Eastern time.
The action in the NHL is picking up! More details to follow.
