The Montreal Canadiens' training camp is fast approaching, and soon, we will have answers to our questions.
Notably, who will be Martin St-Louis' much-discussed second-line center?
Will it be Kirby Dach? Will it be Alex Newhook? Will it be, as suggested by TVA Sports journalist Renaud Lavoie, Zachary Bolduc?
That remains to be seen, but one thing is certain-we can already cross one name off the list.
Some experts had suggested it earlier this summer, but know that young Ivan Demidov will NOT be among the players auditioning for the team's second-line center role.
Seven Montreal Canadiens players are being asked to practice their faceoffs, and Ivan Demidov is not one of them
Well, we already knew the chances were slim, but this confirms that the Montreal Canadiens have decided to keep Demidov on the wing.. Which is absolutely the right decision in my opinion!
Yes, that's a good indication of how the Habs see him!
Nick Suzuki, Kirby Dach, Alex Newhook, Joe Veleno, Oliver Kapanen, Zachary Bolduc, and Juraj Slafkovsky are the Canadiens players practicing their skills in the faceoff circle with expert Marc Bureau.
The two most interesting names here are obviously Bolduc and Slafkovsky, who stand out a bit compared to Suzuki, Dach, Newhook, Veleno, and Kapanen.
And if it were your decision, who would be the Montreal Canadiens' second-line center to start the season?
