To enhance his performance, Montreal Canadiens goalie Samuel Montembeault has adopted an innovative cognitive program this summer.

Under the supervision of Dr. Philippe Croisetière, a neurology expert, Montembeault has focused on improving his vision accuracy and balance through "internal GPS" exercises with his eyes closed.

This method, which involves sessions where he must target objects while being disoriented, aims to boost his reaction time to shots.

Montembeault, who is expected to be the Canadiens' starting goalie this season, hopes this preparation will make him more consistent.

Although his name is not yet prominently mentioned, a strong start to the season could improve his chances.
