We just received a last-minute announcement from Montreal Canadiens head coach Martin St-Louis.
Martin St-Louis makes two changes, including one in goal, as Jakub Dobes immediately replaces Samuel Montembeault
That’s what St-Louis confirmed during his press conference just moments ago.
“Martin St. Louis confirms Jakub Dobes will start in goal for Habs tomorrow night vs. Dallas.”
– Stu Cowan
Samuel Montembeault, age 29, has a 4-4-1 record this season, with a goals-against average of 3.52 and a save percentage of .861.
Jakub Dobes, age 24, has a 6-0-1 record this season, with a goals-against average of 2.25 and an impressive save percentage of .920.
Do you agree with Martin St-Louis’s decision?
“In Suzuki’s absence, Newhook is taking reps at center between Caufield and Slafkovsky.
For those wondering: no, Ivan Demidov did not take Slafkovsky’s spot on the first line this morning (as he did in the third period last night).”
– Marc-Olivier Cook
All the details are in the official release from the Montreal Canadiens (Lines and defensive pairings).
