It might put more pressure on him, but he's capable of handling it. We're eager to see him back in action, in any case.

Primeau, 24 years old, a 7th-round pick in 2017, has a record of 5-6-2 this season in the NHL, a goals-against average of 3.04, and a save percentage of .901 with one shutout.

We might see him play much more frequently in the coming weeks.

Details to follow.
