The Montreal Canadiens will dress 11 forwards and five defenders against the Florida Panthers at the FLA Live Arena on New Years Day. Disco crash at 1pm (TSN2, RDS, TSN 690 Radio, 98.5 FM).

This morning, the team announced that Alexander Romanov and Jake Evans have joined the NHL’s COVID protocol list. In the interest of saving time, here are the remaining ones from the opening day roster: Nick Suzuki, Jonathan Drouin, Cole Caufield, Alex Belzile, Cedric Paquette, David Savard, Brett Kulak and Sami Niku. So was Sam Montembeault, and will receive the nod for the goal against his former club.
