Samuel Montembeault will be in net tonight when the Canadiens take on the Jets at 8:00 PM eastern time. Meanwhile, Joel Edmundson is set to make his season debut and while there is plenty of space on the cap thanks to LTIR, the same cannot be said about roster spots.
From lines and pairing at practice, it looks like Wideman will be the one to make way in the line-up and Dadonov and Hoffman aren't back in there either so does that mean that one of them gets waived? Time will tell.
Caufield-Suzuki-Dach Anderson-Dvorak-Gallagher Drouin-Monahan-Armia Pitlick-Evans-Slafkovsky
Edmundson-Xhekaj Guhle-Savard Harris-Kovacevic
Montembeault Allen (According to Patrick Friolet)
However, John Lu reports that Edmundson is only rotating right now, will he be back or not?
So, roster move coming then. Will they paper a young guy to Laval (like Xhekaj for instance) or will they bite the bullet and waive an unproductive vet (Dadonov, Hoffman, Drouin)? We'll know in the next few hours I guess #GoHabsGo https://t.co/pCNkPFOYlQ
