Two games will take place at the Bell Centre

Posted On: May 29, 2024

With the playoffs coming to a close, that means the amateur draft is just around the corner.

As we know, the Canadian from Montreal will talk about the 5th place if he does not decide to change his choice and look for reinforcements in the attack.

CH has very good prospects, especially in defense.

Even though the attacking core is very young, it still lacks hit at this position and we know that the club would like to recruit an offensive talent with its 5th overall pick.

By signing a talented young striker, fans will naturally want to see him play in Montreal as soon as possible.

And if we trust what Renaud Lavoie said on the show JICpossibly as early as mid-September.

In fact, the renowned TVA sportswriter announced that the Bell Center will host two rookie camp games on September 14 and 15.

In addition, these two games will be played on two nights against the rookies of the Toronto Maple Leafs, which will quickly create a rivalry between the young players on each team.

The Habs’ rookie games have been played in Buffalo the last two years, while in 2021 they were played in Ottawa.

Very interesting for Canadiens fans who will be able to see some of the club’s best talent in Montreal and see what they have in store.

Unlike other years, there will only be two rookie games and Renaud Lavoie seems to think this is a good thing :

“I think that’s a good thing because I think there were a few too many games played in the rookie tournament and now there are two. You look at what you need to look at. Plus, people can come and watch extra games, which is always nice. » – Renaud Lavoie

I agree with Renaud Lavoie, because there is no need to drag out these games.

While we always want more, especially when it comes to checking out the club’s top prospects, this rookie camp is just a small glimpse into what the organization is capable of.

Those who stand out will then have the chance to showcase themselves at the team’s official training camp.

Who will watch the rookie games at the Bell Centre?
