In a press briefing in the last few seconds, live from Tampa Bay, Habs head coach Martin St. Louis just announced some big news for a young defenseman.
Freshly signed by Montreal, Jordan Harris will play his first career NHL game tomorrow against the Lightning. In order to insert Harris, it is not the young Justin Barron who will be bailing out, but Chris Wideman.
So, for tomorrow: HARRIS IN and Wideman OUT, from the lineup. Very much looking forward to seeing how the kid performs against one of the NHL's powerhouses.
"Martin St. Louis confirms Jordan Harris will play his first NHL game on Saturday!" - Montreal Canadiens
Also note that Ryan Poehling will also be inserted into the lineup and will be back in action tomorrow.
