Montembeault stopped 33 of 37 shots on net in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Avalanche.

Montembeault conceded two goals in the first 10 minutes of the game before allowing one more tally in each of the next two periods. He was eventually bested by Charlie Coyle and Brock Nelson in the shootout to hand Montembeault his second overtime loss in a row. The 28-year-old netminder has a 25-21-6 record with a 2.88 GAA and a .900 save percentage. Montembeault has seen a heavy workload recently as the Canadiens make their playoff push, starting the team's last four games and facing 109 shots over that span. His volume of appearances in net gives him good value in fantasy moving forward.
