Last night, the Canadiens caused a pleasant surprise by announcing the call-up of young defenseman Logan Mailloux, but that's not all.
Not only is this a great end-of-season gift for Mailloux, but it's also a wonderful birthday present!Indeed, Logan Mailloux's birthday is April 15th, so he was called up on his birthday - the day of his 21st birthday!
Bill Daly commented on Logan Mailloux's case and everything is resolved!
For those who were still wondering, yes there was a ban imposed on Mailloux last season, which required the green light from Gary Bettman before he could play in the NHL, but this green light has indeed been given at 100%.
"According to several sources, Logan Mailloux has been cleared to play in the NHL when he secures a spot with the Canadiens, which ends all speculation." - Renaud Lavoie, TVA Sports
And today he secured that coveted spot with the Canadiens, so the green light has just been given.
The path is completely clear for tonight, and unless there's a huge turn of events, Logan will play his first NHL game.
We really can't wait to see this and we are so happy for him.

Daly confirms here that Mailloux met with the NHL, that they had a good frank conversation, and importantly, he mentions that Logan was impressive during the meeting. He impressed the league's top executives.
