There is one more major change to officially note:
"Justin Barron will play his first game of the season with Jordan Harris.

So Barron is officially inserted into the lineup:
"The CH will play with five rookies on the blue line tonight.
According to NHL statisticians, we haven't seen five rookie defensemen on a roster since the Philadelphia Flyers in 2007. That was April 5, 2007." - JF Chaumont

This should be very interesting, and we look forward to seeing Barron in action again.
See the CH's official release on the subject:
Evgenii Dadonov and Chris Wideman are left out, Joel Armia will be on the first line with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, and Anthony Richard remains in the lineup. (on the fourth line)
