News Canadiens Team Notes

A successful homestand for the Laval Rocket last weekend left them sitting atop the AHL’s North Division, a familiar spot for the team. It also gave them a huge boost heading into a road trip with three straight games against North Division rivals. First up, their most hated rivals from just down the 401 Corridor, the Belleville Senators. The team got Owen Beck back from the Canadiens after…

The Montreal Canadiens made two roster moves on Thursday that will greatly help the Laval Rocket. Defenders David Reinbacher and William Trudeau, who have been out since training camp, took the next step towards being able to play AHL games. Both had been on the NHL roster as you cannot send down players who are injured, which means both are likely very close to game action.

Filip Eriksson struggled in Växjö last year when expectations were high. He was coming off a very successful stint in HockeyAllsvenskan with the Nybro Vikings and a good playoff performance with Växjö. He mentioned a year ago that he struggled a bit with confidence. “You get a chance in HockeyAllsvenskan and you know that you get another if you miss it. There might be three games before you get…
