Montreal Canadiens lines at morning skate: Five players poised for debut

The Montreal Canadiens held their first morning skate of the regular season in Toronto on Wednesday, and we appear to have a good look at how the team will look when they start the season.

After Ryan Poehling was sent down this morning to the Laval Rocket, there was one less option for the fourth line. Artturi Lehkonen was there as expected, and it appears he will play with Mathieu Perreault and Cédric Paquette, which means that Alex Belzile and Adam Brooks will be on the outside looking in.

The top three lines are what we had been seeing in pre-season with Nick Suzuki with Tyler Toffoli and Cole Caufield.
