Jake Allen and Samuel Montembeault are involved in a rare phenomenon in the NHL

The team showed that there are benefits to having a three-goalie situation and that it's essential to take advantage of this challenging situation for everyone.

On Ice B at the CN Sports Centre, there was the regular team practice with the players. On Ice A, there was Eric Raymond, the goalie coach. Monty and Allen were going back and forth, exchanging roles.

Cayden Primeau was confirmed as the goaltender, so he followed the starting routine and took part in the full practice with his teammates.

Private coaching sessions seconds after a team practice are very rare, and goalies rarely get the opportunity to fine-tune certain aspects of their technique like this on the fly.

It's a brilliant idea that might not be possible without the three-goalie situation, but most would still prefer to have two goalies in the organization.
