With two streaks of two games in as many days this week, Primeau will have the opportunity to find the Montreal Canadiens’ net again. He will also be the team’s starting goalie against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Wednesday.
And Primeau will have no room for error, he who is probably starting a crucial week for the rest of his season.
“It’s an extremely important match for him against the Columbus Blue Jackets,” said informant Renaud Lavoie during the show JiC, broadcast on TVA Sports on Tuesday.
“I’ll give you a statistic on Primeau,” he explained. […] There is an advanced statistic that exists [qui indique] that he has given 11 goals to the opposition since the start of the season. It’s a peak in this league.”
Despite everything, the journalist is confident that the young cerberus will recover. However, he will have to show that he is the man for the job behind Samuel Montembeault.
“Whether we like it or not, we are at a crossroads,” continued Lavoie. I think he should and will bounce back. His teammates have confidence in him, but at a certain point, it has to come from him.
