The end for Josh Anderson: a former Canadiens employee removes him from the lineup
Josh Anderson had a very poor season with the Canadiens, but it seems he put in extra effort this summer to bounce back.
Indeed, alongside Nick Suzuki, Samuel Montembeault, and Jayden Struble, among others, Josh Anderson spent the summer in Montreal training at the Canadiens' facilities.
This strategy could pay off for him as he looks to secure a spot in the top 9 forwards.
Josh Anderson removed from the lineup: Marc Dumont thinks so
According to Marc Dumont, a former content creator for the Canadiens, the speedy forward might be left out by Martin St-Louis in his projected starting lineup.
Patrik Laine - Kirby Dach - Joshua Roy
Brendan Gallagher - Alex Newhook - Joel Armia
Michael Pezzetta - Jake Evans - Christian Dvorak
Extras: Josh Anderson and Alex Barré-Boulet."
Personally, I don't see how Michael Pezzetta could be ahead of Josh Anderson, even if the latter is going through a rough patch.
We're talking about a player who has scored 20 goals multiple times and can bounce back at any time.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but in my view, there's no need to worry about seeing Josh Anderson in the top 9 come the first game of the season, unless he's injured, of course.
