BROSSARD — The Montreal Canadiens made room for their young defensive talent this summer by moving two established players.
But blue-line prospects Lane Hutson, Logan Mailloux and David Reinbacher are trying not to look too far ahead, even though they all dream of seizing this opportunity to make the NHL roster.
Hutson, Reinbacher and Mailloux took to the ice at the CN Sports Complex on the second day of rookie camp Thursday — a physical session with players well aware of what’s at stake. The Canadiens haven’t had a positional battle gather this much attention in years, especially from rookie camp onward. Hutson focused on preparing for his first full season in the professional ranks and adjusting to the busy schedule at this level.
Meanwhile, Reinbacher didn’t play with the Canadiens last season. The 19-year-old Austrian did, however, play 11 games with the American Hockey League’s Laval Rocket after arriving in North America following his season with Swiss club HC Kloten.
