In the last few seconds, we found that forward Rem Pitlick was mysteriously absent from his team's morning practice today. We now know why: <q>Rem Pitlick will not participate in today's practice, in an effort to be waived at 2pm. - Montreal Canadiens</q> So he's the one to bail out some of the injured players. Mike Hoffman, Evgenii Dadonov and Jonathan Drouin were therefore spared, for the moment. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/CanadiensMTL/status/1589644924169129984'> </a></blockquote></div> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/renlavoietva/status/1589645211889987584?s=46&t=bXqckKVgaXGv72Sh9ztiWg'> </a></blockquote></div>
