In the run-up to this afternoon's game against the St. Louis Blues (4:00 p.m.), many were wondering which goaltender would be in net for the clash.
With another game tomorrow afternoon against the Dallas Stars, we can expect to see two different goaltenders in this back-to-back with the ménage à trois.
The Montreal Canadiens have announced that rookie goaltender Jacob Fowler will be tasked with stopping the Blues in St. Louis.

This will be another golden opportunity for the young American goaltender to prove that he has what it takes to stay in the NHL.
He's doing pretty well so far in the big league, but the last game wasn't his best, as he allowed four goals on 21 shots.
More details to come…
