The Montreal Canadiens have made their choice on Logan Mailloux
Based on recent decisions by the Montreal Canadiens, it appears increasingly likely that Logan Mailloux will start the season with the Laval Rocket.
Journalist Anthony Marcotte pointed out that Mailloux is expected to be part of the Rocket's roster at the beginning of the 2024-2025 season.
Marcotte mentioned several factors working against Mailloux's immediate integration into the Canadiens' lineup, including Jayden Struble's impressive training camp, Kent Hughes' desire to avoid losing Justin Barron through waivers, and Lane Hutson's secured place on the Canadiens' defense.
Here are Marcotte's comments:
«I think the writing is already on the wall for number 24. It will be Laval to start the season.»

The Canadiens' defensive situation is quite complex, with many young talents competing for a spot on the roster. Jayden Struble, in particular, has made a strong case for himself, while Mailloux, despite his undeniable potential, may need additional time to develop in Laval before joining Montreal.
Even if Mailloux starts in Laval, it's likely that he will make his NHL debut during this season, especially if Justin Barron or other defensemen encounter struggles.
This makes the early weeks of the season particularly exciting to follow, especially in terms of how Martin St-Louis and his staff manage the roster.
