The Montreal Canadiens held a quick morning skate at the Bell Sports Complex in Brossard before leaving to Toronto for their game against the Maple Leafs on Wednesday night.

Samuel Montembeault and Kevin Poulin will be the two goaltenders after Jake Allen and Cayden Primeau split time in the pre-season opener on Monday.

After being in four groups for the start of training camp, the Canadiens have split into the more routine three groups: two who play in pre-season games and a third group made up of players who will end up in Laval Rocket training camp that opens next week.
