As the Montreal Canadiens gear up for a pivotal showdown in Washington, all eyes are on the team’s goaltending situation—a topic that has sparked intense speculation and concern among fans and analysts alike. With Samuel Montembeault’s health status shrouded in uncertainty, anticipation continues to build as the Canadiens prepare for what could be a season-defining moment.
While official updates from head coach Martin St-Louis remain elusive, respected journalist Renaud Lavoie has already delivered a decisive verdict, leaving little doubt about Montembeault’s availability for the crucial matchup.
In a series already marked by high stakes and relentless energy, the absence of the Canadiens’ starting goalie adds yet another layer of drama to an already tense first-round battle with the Washington Capitals. As Jakub Dobes steps up to shoulder the pressure, the hockey world watches closely, knowing that every save and every goal could tip the balance.
With emotions running high and the outcome hanging in the balance, the stage is set for a dramatic night in Washington—one that could shape the Canadiens’ playoff destiny.
Without realizing it, we are still waiting for news regarding the health status of Montreal Canadiens goalie Samuel Montembeault.
However, let’s not hold our breath.
Earlier today, on BPM Sports, TVA Sports journalist Renaud Lavoie already gave a verdict for Wednesday night.
Lavoie, who has good sources within the organization, did not hesitate for a second when asked about the matter.

Even though Martin St-Louis had no update to give regarding Montembeault today:
Renaud Lavoie did have one.
“On that subject, Renaud Lavoie was asked during the morning show on BPM Sports. He was asked if there was any world where Monty could play Wednesday’s game.
His answer? No.”

So it will be a situation to monitor, but in the meantime, let’s hope Jakub Dobes still has a few big wins left in him!
He has absolutely done the job so far!
Dobes is also starting to feel more comfortable.
There is definitely a lot of intensity in this first-round series between the Montreal Canadiens and the Washington Capitals!
