The Canadiens announced Tuesday morning that goaltender Cayden Primeau has been called up from the AHL’s Laval Rocket and added to the team’s taxi squad.
The team also announced that goalie Carey Price won’t make the trip to Toronto for Wednesday night’s game against the Maple Leafs (7:30 p.m., SN, NBCSN, RDS, TSN 690 Radio, 98.5 FM).
Price appeared to suffer an injury during the second period of Monday night’s 3-2 overtime win over the Edmonton Oilers at the Bell Centre but stayed in the game.
When head coach Dominique Ducharme was asked about Price’s status after the game, he said: “He’s getting checked out. I mean, we don’t think it’s anything serious. He’s getting checked out.”

Backup goalie Jake Allen has been solid this season with a 5-3-4 record, a 2.23 goals-against average and a .922 save percentage. With Laval this season, Primeau has an 11-3-0 record with a 2.07 goals-against average and a 2.07 goals-against average.
