Sam Montembeault News: Gets pulled Tuesday

Montembeault stopped 27 of 32 shots before being replaced in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Blues.

Montembeault allowed five goals on 32 shots before being replaced by Jakub Dobes with 9:48 remaining in third period. This was the third straight loss for the 28-year-old Montembeault, who has gone 0-1-2 with a 4.36 GAA and an .862 save percentage over that span. His starting role for the final weeks of the regular season isn't in jeopardy, though, and he could remain in the Canadiens' crease for their matchup against the Flyers on Thursday.
