The Montreal Canadiens have recalled Frédéric Allard from the minors, adding him to their roster. Allard was just acquired on Friday in a trade for Nate Schnarr, and will join the Canadiens in Las Vegas.
The Canadiens have recalled defenseman Frédéric Allard from the Laval Rocket (emergency recall).
He will be available to play tomorrow against the Golden Knights in Vegas.#GoHabsGo— Canadiens Montréal (@CanadiensMTL) March 5, 2023Since this is an emergency recall, it means that Montreal doesn’t have six healthy defencemen to play on Sunday versus the Golden Knights, and that probably means that Kaiden Guhle, who left late in the first period of Friday night’s game favouring his shoulder before returning for the remainder of the contest, is unable to play in the road trip finale.
