All you can ask for the players on your team is to better every year. However, in-season improvements are equally as positive. Alex Galchenyuk is probably the one on the Montreal Canadiens who has seen the most growth this season, and Noah Juulsen‘s progression since being called up from the Laval Rocket is extraordinary. That being said, Brett Lernout has quietly been a much better defenceman for the Habs.
A pair of equipment malfunctions started Lernout’s season with the Montreal Canadiens in a game against the Edmonton Oilers. But the thing fans couldn’t take their eyes off of was how slow Lernout looked.
