Injury has just occurred for the Canadiens and could force Kent Hughes to make a move ahead of the Rookie Camp
An injury has just occurred within the Montreal Canadiens organization and could force Kent Hughes to make a move.
As we reported earlier this week, the Montreal Canadiens announced the signing of eight professional tryouts.
We also have the complete list of 23 players who will participate in rookie camp, and we were pleasantly surprised to learn that names like Lane Hutson, David Reinbacher, Logan Mailloux, Owen Beck, and Florian Xhekaj will face off against the Toronto Maple Leafs' prospects.
Showdown between the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs prospects: an injury will force Kent Hughes to act
One of the goaltenders targeted by the Habs for this 2024 rookie camp was the talented Quentin Miller.
However, he has unfortunately just been injured.
«According to information reported by Mathieu Paradis, Quebecois goaltender Quentin Miller unfortunately suffered an injury during a pre-season game against the Chicoutimi Saguenéens.»
The goaltender will therefore miss the rookie camp and will need to be replaced by Kent Hughes.
Miller, 19, is a 6-foot-3, 180-pound goaltender who was drafted 128th overall (4th round) by the Montreal Canadiens in 2023.
«It's very likely that another goaltender will need to be invited to the rookie camp since yesterday, in a pre-season game between the Océanic and the Saguenéens, Quentin Miller was injured.»
- Mathieu Paradis
His participation in the rookie camp is considered «unlikely.»
Kent Hughes will therefore need to add another goaltender to his lineup for this 2024 rookie camp, as only invited goaltenders were expected.
This is a situation to follow closely in the coming hours.
