After a well-deserved Christmas break, there's quite a bit of action to keep an eye on with the Montreal Canadiens today. Of course, it started this morning with Kent Hughes recalling goaltender Jakub Dobes from the Laval Rocket.
But that's not all.
We also got a big update on Patrik Laine. According to Eric Engels from Sportsnet, Laine boarded the plane with his teammates heading to Florida.
In short, we're likely to get more details on these two matters quite soon, as head coach Martin St-Louis will address the media this afternoon.
