Beautiful Scene in Brossard, as Newly Acquired Player Makes Surprise Appearance

First of all, a new acquisition by Kent hughes and the Canadiens was spotted in his new uniform for the very first time, and it was Zachary Bolduc!
Zack Bolduc on the ice today in Brossard
The Canadiens' new acquisition Zachary Bolduc made his first appearance on the ice in Brossard, in the Tricolore uniform, no less!
We love to see it!
It was Bolduc's very first time, and yes, the Habs' colors suit him very well.
In total, there were about a dozen players on the ice with Bolduc, including Ivan Demidov, Alex Newhook, Joe Veleno, Jayden Struble, Jakub Dobes, Joshua Roy, Xavier Simoneau, and a few others..
There was also an unexpected player, wearing the uniform of the Charlotte Checkers, the Florida Panthers' farm team.
Without realizing it, the Canadiens' 2025 training camp will officially kick off in less than a month, so it's normal to see more and more players start arriving in town.
Clearly, Bolduc was already eager to land in Montreal!
"I was told to practice my faceoffs. I don't know if that's to play centre or just to take faceoffs on the left side. But I'm gonna work hard to be ready for camp & to have the mentality of a winger but also someone who can play centre."
"The last time I played centre was at 17 years old in Rimouski..I think I can adapt well to the challenge." - Zachary Bolduc

As for that mysterious Checkers player, it will be a story to follow..
Zachary Bolduc, 22 years old, was acquired by the Habs last July in exchange for defenseman Logan Mailloux, and he recorded 36 points in 72 games last season with the St. Louis Blues, including 19 goals (the majority of which came toward the end of the season).
He was a 1st-round pick, 17th overall, by the Blues in 2021.
