Cayden Primeau Dressing As Habs' Backup Thursday
1 year agoMontreal Canadiens goaltender Cayden Primeau will dress as the backup to starter Jake Allen for Thursday night's contest in Arizona against the Coyotes. There is no word on whether there is an injury to Samuel Montembault or whether the club simply plans to give the netminder the full night off. Although just 24 years of age, Primeau has had a tough go of it in his brief exposure to the NHL to this point. Through 18 starts and 22 career NHL appearances, Primeau owns a 4.11 goals-against average and .872 save percentage while going 13-3-2 in the process. The Michigan native has appeared in one game this season and allowed four goals on 33 shots (.879 Sv%) in a losing effort to the Devils on Oct. 24.
