Kind of wonder with the number of forwards they have in the mix for NHL jobs, why are they bothering wasting time with the guys listed on the 4th line for tonight, none of whom are in the picture? Shouldn't the guys battling for playing time or a roster spot be dressing? They have 4 games in 6 days so they are keeping more bodies for another 3 days. The forward group is pretty set... Suzuki Caufied Anderson Gallagher Dvorak Dadonov Druin Monahan Dach Armia Evans Pitlick Hoffman Pezzetta Byron(IR) On defense Matheson Savard Edmundson(IR?) Wideman Schuenman Then likely 3 of the following minus any waiver/trade pickups Guhle Harris Bowey Barron Leskinen Xherkaj. I expect them to add at least 1 guy with NHL experience on D, might be Joseph, Pittsburgh is rumored to have offered him and he may be on waivers this week. In nets Allen Montembault The way Guhle has been playing, IMO he's a lock. Barron should make the team as well.

The Canadiens have agreed to terms on a three-year, entry-level contract (2022-23 to 2024-25) with defenseman Logan Mailloux.
Glad to see.

He's in a tough spot playing with Savard vs some very good lines(#1 or 2). If he cracks the roster, it would be ideal to have a veteran in front of him so he can start as a #5-6.

I hard good things about him, with Edmundson out and being short on the RH side, worth an extended look. It also allows you to protect the young D a bit more. I'm not s big fan of just throwing young players into the deep end.

The Canadiens assigned five players to the AHL's Laval Rocket on Monday.
Forwards Rafael Harvey-Pinard and Jesse Ylonen, defensemen Justin Barron and Otto Leskinen, and goaltender Cayden Primeau will join head coach Jean-François Houle's contingent.
The Canadiens have until 5:00 p.m. ET to submit their opening night roster.

I'm excited about the following: Kaiden Guhle, Jordan Harris, and Arber Xhekaj. My dad is a huge Habs fan and he said to me at Thanksgiving today, "I can't wait for that Jack-eye kid to do something to make Jack Edwards go into a meltdown on air during a Bruins-Habs game!"

I'm excited about the following: Kaiden Guhle, Jordan Harris, and Arber Xhekaj. They will likely send one down once Matheson is ready.

Edmundson is skating again today. with all the young D that will end up getting NHL games, he is a key piece for the Habs in helping the kids, both on and off the ice.
