Logan Mailloux is having a less electrifying training camp than last year, but he's doing what the Canadiens ask of him.

He's trying to earn his spot with the big club, though the competition is fierce, in a good way. He must surpass at least two other defensemen, namely Justin Barron, Jayden Struble, and Lane Hutson, which is far from guaranteed.

Looking at Friday's Canadiens practice, we got a good sense of Martin St-Louis' lineup for the first game of the season, and unfortunately, Mailloux was not part of it.

As for David Reinbacher, it's not surprising, but for Logan Mailloux, it's a bit more disappointing.

The young man must find a way to leave no choice to Martin St-Louis and Kent Hughes, which he has evidently not succeeded in doing so far.

Among the forwards, it should be noted that Oliver Kapanen was absent for a day of treatments. I wonder if he would have had a spot in the lineup otherwise.

Nothing is officially decided yet, and the first wave of cuts should happen soon, but Mailloux received a strong message with this practice.

I hope he'll find a way to elevate his game because a fully capable Logan Mailloux is definitely among the Canadiens' top 6 defensemen. He just needs to let his talent speak.
