Wednesday Night's Starting Goalie Officially Revealed by Martin St. Louis

Although the next game for the Montreal Canadiens isn't until Wednesday night against the Columbus Blue Jackets, head coach Martin St-Louis has just confirmed that Samuel Montembeault will indeed get the start.

"Head coach Martin St-Louis confirms that Samuel Montembeault will get the start in Columbus, Wednesday. - Montreal Canadiens"

The Quebec goalie is exceptional these days, having won two of his last three duels, all while recording a remarkable goals-against average of 2.03 and a save percentage of 0.933.

He is clearly demonstrating to the management of the Bleu-Blanc-Rouge that he can hold a more significant position in the lineup, as he is currently playing only one out of every three games. Kent Hughes will need to quickly find a solution regarding the famous goaltender situation if he wants Monty to get more playing time.

One thing is certain, if the 27-year-old netminder is able to perform like this on a regular basis, he would undoubtedly deserve the title of number one goalie for the Canadiens.
