Samuel Montembeautl was unable to finish the final match.

He left the game, clearly bothered by a lower-body injury.

The Habs recalled Cayden Primeau this morning to assist Jakub Dobes tonight in Game 4 of the series against the Washington Capitals.

As for Monty’s injury, we didn’t have many details.

But Martin St-Louis provided a few: in his press conference, the CH coach spoke of a day-to-day absence.

At least we’re not talking about a long-term absence.

It’s Dobes who will have the mandate to be good in front of his net until Montembeault is able to return to the game.

But as for Monty… the CH must be hoping for a speedy return, because we’re talking about the team’s #1 goaltender.

After all, he’s the one who got the club to the playoffs.

And without necessarily being perfect, Montembeault really had a hand in the team’s victory this week, and he’s having a good series so far.

All this to say that we’ll have to wait for more news on Samuel Montembeault’s injury.

But at least we know that he’s not so seriously injured that his playoffs are over… and that’s the good news.

Because the Habs will need their best goalie to go the distance in the playoffs :


In gusto

– Nice !

– To be continued.

– Indeed.
