Montreal Canadiens Announcement: The verdict for Anthony Richard is in and it's causing a huge stir

While the Montreal Canadiens players were on the ice in Washington for the last few minutes, head coach Martin St-Louis took the opportunity to reveal some new lineups.

Here they are:

"CH's lineup today in Washington.

Caufield-Suzuki-Dach


Hoffman-Evans-Anderson

Slafkovsky-Dvorak-Gallagher

Dadonov-Drouin-Armia

Richard-Pezzetta

Edmundson-Kovacevic

Harris-Barron

Xhekaj-Wideman

Allen

Montembeault" - J-F Chaumont

So that means that unless there is a last minute change between now and tomorrow's 4:00 PM game against the Capitals in Washington, Anthony Richard will be left out again.

We also note that Kirby Dach is back on the first line alongside Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, while Jake Evans is the team's second center. (Jonathan Drouin, the fourth center)

As for the defense pairings, it will depend on the health of Kaiden Guhle.

A case to follow, but in Richard's case, it's rather disappointing to see that he will have to skip his turn again.
