3 Habs make Finland, Canada rosters for 4 Nations Face Off
Montreal Canadiens and Quebec Player Represented at 4 Nations Face-Off
Three Montreal Canadiens players and one player from the province of Quebec will be showcasing their skills on the ice at the upcoming 4 Nations Face-Off event in February.
In comparison to the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, where four Quebecers were part of Team Canada, this year’s representation sees three Habs players making their mark on the international stage. Carey Price and P.K. Subban will be donning the red and white for Canada, while Max Pacioretty will be representing the USA.
The Montreal Canadiens will have a strong presence on Team Finland, with forwards Joel Armia and Patrik Laine both making the roster for the blue and white Nordic team.
Joining the international lineup is Habs goaltender Sam Montembeault, who will be sharing the crease with Jordan Binnington of the St. Louis Blues and Adin Hill of the Vegas Golden Knights on Team Canada.
Montembeault stands as the lone Quebec player on the Canadian roster, showcasing the talent and depth of hockey players hailing from the province.
Unfortunately, Canadiens’ top forwards Cole Caufield (USA) and Nick Suzuki (Canada) did not make the final cuts for their respective national teams, highlighting the fierce competition and level of skill required to compete at the international level.
