Preseason games are always an important time to evaluate players, test combinations, and most of all, prepare for the regular season.
In Montreal, it's no secret that expectations are high, as several young players want to earn their spot while some veterans need to get back into rhythm.
In this context, a decision by Martin St-Louis is drawing particular attention.
Fans were wondering if a key offensive player would be used right from the preseason. The answer has now been given.
Martin St-Louis Confirms That Kirby Dach Will Play Preseason Games
The head coach confirmed that Kirby Dach will indeed take part in preseason games with the Montreal Canadiens.
This news was welcomed enthusiastically by fans, since Dach hasn't had the chance to complete a full season since arriving in Montreal.
Injured repeatedly, I still believe he can play a very big role with the Habs this year.
I think sending him into preseason games is a very good thing. It's clear he'll need to regain confidence before the regular season.
We want to see him reclaim his role as an offensive pillar and show that he can finally take the next step this year.
I'm also eager to see which line St-Louis will use him on, and who he'll be paired with. Who knows, maybe even with a certain Ivan Demidov..
Fans will therefore have their eyes on him in the coming days, as Dach's performance could have a major impact on the Canadiens' start to the season.
