We have an intriguing development live from the Montreal Canadiens’ morning practice.
Brendan Gallagher is absent, and Rafaël Harvey-Pinard has taken his place on the third line alongside Christian Dvorak and Josh Anderson.

This situation is worth monitoring over the next few minutes, but the Canadiens have announced a media availability for a press briefing immediately after the morning practice, so we should get answers to our questions at that time.
Brendan Gallagher is absent this morning, replaced by Rafaël Harvey-Pinard as we await details from today’s press conference
It could simply be a rest day for Gallagher, but it’s unusual for that to happen on a game day, especially since No. 11 hasn’t missed any practices earlier this week.
Additionally, the Canadiens typically issue an official announcement when a player is absent for treatment reasons, which hasn’t been done for Gallagher today.
It’s likely that Gallagher is dealing with a minor issue, and we may see Rafaël Harvey-Pinard in the lineup tonight.
Let’s hope Gallagher stays healthy, as he’s having an excellent start to the season and has been incredibly valuable for Martin St-Louis’ lineup this year.
At 32 years old, Brendan Gallagher has scored 7 goals in 17 games this season, making him the team’s second-leading scorer, behind Cole Caufield, of course.
Details to follow.
