It appears that Joel Armia will return to the Montreal Canadiens lineup for Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Armia, who missed Game 1 of the series, skated with Corey Perry and Eric Staal at the team’s morning skate. Jake Evans seemed to be wearing a non-contact jersey after he played in Game 1.
The Finnish forward was in COVID-19 protocol over the weekend, and did not fly with the team on Sunday. He was cleared to play on Monday, and took a private plane to Tampa Bay.
