The list of players participating in training camp is once again quite large as the Habs revealed that 72 players will take part. Here is a rundown of who all will be there.
*-Player is on an AHL contract
^-Tryout
Goalies (10)
Jake Allen, Jakub Dobes, Zachary Emond*, Strauss Mann*, Quentin Miller, Samuel Montembeault, Carey Price, Cayden Primeau, Jan Spunar^, Joe Vrbetic^
Price’s presence here isn’t anything to get excited about as it’s a technicality that he has to go to camp where he’ll then fail his physical. Mann and Emond are tentatively slated to be the tandem with Trois-Rivieres this season although if Primeau doesn’t make it through waivers, one of them could move up to Laval. Vrbetic is noted as a tryout by the organization which is odd since his signing reportedly rolled over to 2025.
Defence (23)
Justin Barron, Nicolas Beaudin, Tobie Bisson*, Stanislav Demin^, Olivier Galipeau*, Kaiden Guhle, Jordan Harris, Brady Keeper, Johnathan Kovacevic, Noah Laaouan*, Gustav Lindstrom, Logan Mailloux, Mike Matheson, Mattias Norlinder, Christopher Ortiz*, John Parker-Jones*, David Reinbacher, David Savard, Jayden Struble, Miguel Tourigny*, William Trudeau, Chris Wideman, Arber Xhekaj
The lone absentee of some note is Daniil Sobolev who also didn’t participate in rookie camp as he looks to earn a spot with Niagara of the OHL. Players playing regularly overseas (such as Adam Engstrom) or are NCAA-bound won’t be participating in this camp.
