During the Montreal Canadiens' morning practice, several changes could be seen in Martin St-Louis' lineup.

On one hand, we saw that Arber Xhekaj would possibly be the defenseman who will be removed from the lineup on Tuesday night, in favor of Jordan Harris. Johnathan Kovacevic will play a second consecutive game since the introduction of the rotation system between the three defensemen.

There was also great news for 18-year-old CH rookie Juraj Slafkovsky. He found himself on the team's second line, along with Christian Dvorak and Brendan Gallagher.

Obviously, this is mainly due to the fact that Mike Hoffman missed practice for a medical evaluation because of an injury suffered late in the second period of Saturday's game against the Flyers.

However, there is a good chance that we will finally see the big Slovak on an offensive trio, if Hoffman were to miss a few days.

The injury of the number 68 could give Slafkovsky the opportunity to show a little more of his skills and his progression since the beginning of the season.
