Alexandre Carrier is on everyone’s lips at the moment. Will he be able to play tomorrow?

He didn’t train today and is being evaluated on a daily basis. But who knows if he’ll be able to play tomorrow, with an extra 30 hours of rest in his body.

Martin St-Louis, unsurprisingly, was asked about the subject this morning, after today’s training session.

What he said was that Carrier should accompany the club on the road. The only one who could possibly stay at home is Samuel Montembeault, but nothing is certain in the eyes of the coach.

If the Quebec defender is on the road with the guys, he’s got a chance of playing. We remain cautious, however.

And if he’s making the trip with the club, it’s undoubtedly because he’s capable of air travel. For a guy who’s been hit on the head, that’s a good sign, isn’t it?

We should know more tomorrow. But the fact that no recall has been issued for the trip is another good sign right now.

We should also mention that Patrik Laine, who is getting better, is being considered on a day-to-day basis by the Habs. We don’t know if he’ll be able to play tomorrow – or if the CH will need him.

We’ll see, once again, in due course.
