The excellent journalist Luc Gélinas from RDS was on BPM Sports to reveal his starting lineup for the Montreal Canadiens' first game of the season.
A pleasant surprise appeared on the second line, featuring the Finn Joel Armia. Why with Laine and Dach? Because Armia is known for being a steady, no-frills player, good defensively, with solid physical attributes.
Gélinas places Joshua Roy on the third line. In his view, this spot will go to either him or Alex Barré-Boulet.
Finally, no surprises on defense, with Lane Hutson and Logan Mailloux in the lineup.
Here are the lines and pairings:
Caufield-Suzuki-Slafkovsky
Laine-Dach-Armia
Roy-Newhook-Anderson
Evans-Dvorak-Gallagher
