We have a last-minute announcement from the Montreal Canadiens regarding the goaltenders.
It will be Samuel Montembeault, who will be in net for his team tomorrow night against the Boston Bruins!He therefore replaces young Jakub Dobes, who was the starter last night!
Goaltending change for the Montreal Canadiens: Samuel Montembeault replaces Jakub Dobes
Dobby will therefore have to wait before making people forget his more difficult performance from last night.
“Sam Montembeault will get the start tomorrow for the Habs vs the Boston Bruins”
And you, who would you have sent in net for the Montreal Canadiens tomorrow night against the Boston Bruins, if you were in Martin St-Louis’ position?
Samuel Montembeault, 29 years old, 6-foot-3 and 218 pounds, has a 4-4-1 record this season with the Canadiens, along with a goals-against average of 3.61 and a save percentage of .857.
Jakub Dobes, 24 years old, 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds, has a 6-1-1 record this season with the Canadiens, along with a goals-against average of 2.70 and a save percentage of .901.
If the Canadiens want to keep their advantageous position in the NHL standings, the goaltenders will need to regain their usual high level of play. That will start tomorrow night, with Samuel, against the Boston Bruins.
More details to come, and we will keep you updated.
