The biggest battles will be for the third goaltender spot, who will be the seventh (or eighth) defender, and who will win out for the final forward roster spots. Of course, coach Kori Cheverie will also need to determine roles for a lot of the new faces, and replace a lot of players from last season’s team.
It is a veteran group, and Montreal should be expected to contend for another playoff berth.
