I don’t know what Marc Bergevin was planning with making Cayden Primeau the backup goaltender to Carey Price. The Montreal Canadiens were beyond struggling when they made the call-up, and I honestly thought it was a terrible idea to throw a 20-year-old netminder to the wolves as it were.
I was wrong, because at least in the small sample we’ve seen, Primeau appears to be more than show ready.
According to Natural Stat Trick, the Habs held a solid edge in scoring chances, as well as high-danger chances over the Senators.
