Returning to the game between the Canadiens and the Oilers, which will also be broadcast on RDS, let's note that Justin Barron has been removed from the Canadiens' lineup, and reinforcements have been announced.

Montembeault, 28 years old, has a record of 5-8-1 this season, with a goals-against average of 3.09 and a save percentage of .898.
In his career, he has a record of 54-68-22, a 3.36 goals-against average, and a .898 save percentage as well.
