But if Clague wants to cement his place in the league after bouncing back down to the AHL a few times since being drafted 51st overall by the Kings in 2016, he knows itвЂ™ll have to be in also proving what he can do defensively.

While heвЂ™s still looking for his NHL goal, heвЂ™s produced 11 assists in 33 games at this level.

ThereвЂ™s certainly some offence in this player. He has an opportunity to show he can contribute here and make a place for himself.вЂќД¬lague estimates heвЂ™ll do that by relying on his skating, his puck movement and his power-play ability. So, he has good tools, now itвЂ™s up to him. He has good qualities: he skates well, has good vision, skates with the puck and moves it well. вЂњItвЂ™s an interesting project,вЂќ said Ducharme. The Canadiens claimed the young defencemen off waivers from the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday, giving him a chance to take a step towards a full-time NHL job. Ryan Poehling, 22, has already taken on more responsibilities at centre, 21-year-old Alexander Romanov played 24:24 against the Nashville Predators on Saturday, and 20-year-old Cole Caufield is likely to get elevated after registering two assists against Nashville.Дucharme will have plenty of incentive to give 23-year-old Kale Clague a significant opportunity against Tampa. The injury situation has necessitated it anyway. Things got worse with the departures of Phillip Danault, Corey Perry, Eric Staal and Jesperi Kotkaniemi, and now the team that faces Tampa on Tuesday bears no resemblance to the one that dressed for those games back in July.Дucharme said he hasnвЂ™t yet been given any directive from new executive VP of hockey operations Jeff Gorton to give more opportunities to the young players on his roster, but itвЂ™s not as if he has a choice. This downhill slide for the 6-17-3 Canadiens began with off-season news that he was too injured to continue his career. Shea Weber, the teamвЂ™s captain, may never play again. Both are in quarantine for several more days after testing positive for COVID-19 last week. We know Brendan Gallagher and Sami Niku wonвЂ™t play.

Who knows how long it will be for Joel Armia and Jeff Petry, who both missed MondayвЂ™s practice and are considered doubtful to face the Lightning. вЂњItвЂ™s looking like heвЂ™s going to be out a while,вЂќ said Ducharme. Doctors have ruled out surgery, but Ducharme said heвЂ™s back to Square 1 in his recovery.ДЄlso sidelined for weeks: Josh Anderson, with an upper-body injury.ДЄnd on Monday, Tyler Toffoli was given a similar prognosis, also for an upper-body injury sustained on Saturday.

Joel Edmundson suffered a back injury just before training camp started and - despite finally getting into a full practice last week - likely wonвЂ™t return this month. Price left halfway through rehabbing from off-season knee surgery and returned in early November to get back to the process, but he has yet to step on the ice in goaltending equipment and thereвЂ™s no timeline in place for him to do so. Ducharme said Carey Price, who checked into the NHL/NHLPA players assistance program before the season started, likely wonвЂ™t be back before Christmas. The players who have been out the longest wonвЂ™t be back in action for some time. That day doesnвЂ™t appear to be coming soon. Hopefully, at one point, itвЂ™s going to stop and everyone comes back healthy.вЂќ вЂњItвЂ™s not what we planned for, thatвЂ™s for sure. вЂњItвЂ™s not the ideal situation,вЂќ Canadiens head coach Dominique Ducharme said after practice. Roster turnover from year to year in the salary cap era is an inescapable reality, but this is something else.
