Habs Announcement: It Has Just Been Confirmed for Logan Mailloux and Another Forward
We told you about it earlier today, but it has just been confirmed for young Logan Mailloux. He has officially been recalled from the Laval Rocket, and he is not alone, as the Canadiens have also recalled center Owen Beck.
Both players were spotted at the team's hotel a few hours ago by RDS journalist Patrick Friolet, so we had a strong feeling this news was coming. But now, it's officially confirmed.
Indeed, two players are involved in this last-minute roster move before facing the Sharks and Macklin Celebrini.
It's confirmed: Logan Mailloux and Owen Beck recalled from the Laval Rocket
Here is the official confirmation:
We are now eager to see if they will be inserted into the lineup tonight against the Sharks.
This could provide a spark for Martin St-Louis' squad, especially against a very beatable team. However, at the same time, it would also mean that some regulars would have to be sent to the press box.
Logan Mailloux, 21 years old, has accumulated 22 points in 36 games this season in the American Hockey League, along with three points in five NHL games.
Owen Beck, 20 years old, has accumulated 27 points in 41 games this season in the American Hockey League, with zero points in two NHL games.
More details to follow.
What is your prediction for tonight's matchup between the Montreal Canadiens and the San Jose Sharks?
UPDATE
According to Patrick Friolet from RDS, Owen Beck will be inserted into the lineup against the Sharks, replacing Michael Pezzetta.
