Montreal Canadiens to Receive Big Boost for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final

The Montreal Canadiens are moving on to face the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Stanley Cup Final. While they won't have their bench boss back from his case of COVID-19 for Game 1 or 2, Dominque Ducharme will be behind the bench when the Canadiens host the Lightning in Game 3.

Dominique Ducharme confirms it's going to be a 14-day quarantine and he'll be back for Game 3 of the Final.

"I think right now, our guys are not thinking. They're just executing, just playing. I think that's what we wanted to create was for things to become automatic, just second nature... I'm really enjoying seeing the team play that way together."--Dominique Ducharme.

The Canadiens are on quite the roll at the moment and with the play of Carey Price, have a shot at upsetting the defending champs.
