Josh Anderson participated in training today

The Canadian took a plane yesterday to go to Edmonton.

He will face the Oilers tomorrow night to start the trip in the West and there was a training session planned for today to prepare the players.

From the start, it is relevant to note that Josh Anderson was there with the rest of the group. Renaud Lavoie reported it on X.

I don’t think I need to remind you that at the moment, the veteran is injured.

He no longer trains regularly with his teammates because he is too hurt to do so.

The fact that he is on the ice today is good news in itself.

It’s hard, at the moment, not to respect the veteran’s work.

After all, we all know he’s hurt and not at the top of his game. But we still see him giving it his all every night because he wants to help the team win games.

He’s always ready to go to war and that’s what makes him an important player for the Canadian lately.

It should be emphasized:

Anderson is hurt. It seems VERY painful.

Note that it would still be surprising to see changes made to the formation for tomorrow’s game.

The Canadian has had the same lineup since Kirby Dach’s injury with Owen Beck replacing him at the center of the 2nd unit… and it’s working.

The team has won its last four games since Dach has been out.

Why change a winning formula?

However, we will have to monitor the defensive pairs, which have changed often lately.

And ultimately, we should expect Samuel Montembeault to start tomorrow against the Oilers.

The opportunity would be great for the Canadian to go get important points in the standings against a team that is not doing very well lately!
