Zachary Bolduc was absent from practice this morning due to a lower-body injury (he’s day-to-day). We don’t know how serious it is,but here’s how the Habs practiced without Bolduc.

Obviously, the line-up of Nick Suzuki, Juraj Slafkovsky and Cole Caufield was untouched. Kirby Dach was with Brendan Gallagher and Québécois Joe Veleno. Is Veleno a placeholder? Oliver Kapanen’s line (Ivan Demidov and Alex Newhook alongside him) survived again. And Patrik Laine was with Jake Evans and Josh Anderson on what appears to be a fourth line. This too is a change from yesterday. Samuel Blais, Florian Xhekaj and Owen Beck skated together. The former should be the 13th forward and the other two are destined to start the year in Laval. Which guys will play tomorrow? We’ll see… tomorrow, I guess. Details to come…
