We have news about Montreal Canadiens forward Brendan Gallagher, who had temporarily stepped away for personal reasons.
Of course, we recall that yesterday morning, the Canadiens organization announced that Gallagher had been temporarily excused from the team's regular activities for personal reasons.
We were waiting to see if number 11 would be in the lineup for tonight's game against the Carolina Hurricanes, and we just got our answer!
He's here!

He is indeed in his usual spot, alongside Josh Anderson and Christian Dvorak.

As we reported earlier today, it has also been confirmed that Samuel Montembeault will be the starting goaltender tonight at the Bell Centre, while young Owen Beck will be Martin St-Louis' second-line center.
This is a great opportunity for him, playing alongside Patrik Laine and Alex Newhook.
Meanwhile, Kirby Dach (lower body) remains unavailable, while Josh Anderson and David Savard (treatment days) are in the lineup for this Tuesday night game.
Further details to follow.
