Last-minute announcement from the Montreal Canadiens regarding six players, including Florian Xhekaj

Dobes is obviously the goalie, but there are still six changes among the skaters.

It's unfortunate because having a Xhekaj in the game is always great for the spectacle, and we were looking forward to seeing him in action again, but it seems it will have to wait for another time.

Also, notable are the absences of David Reinbacher, William Trudeau, and Owen Beck, who performed well yesterday against the Buffalo Sabres prospects.

Speaking of a possible reduction in the show, John Parker-Jones, who was likely the most physical on the ice yesterday, will also be in the stands.

The 6-foot-7, 230-pound giant is also sitting this one out.
