Young Guns RC from Montembeault's Florida Panthers days before he became the Canadiens' starter. A 3rd-round pick by Florida in 2015, Montembeault bounced between the NHL and AHL before being claimed by Montreal off waivers in October 2021. The move transformed his career. Playing in Montreal, in front of the most passionate fans in hockey, the Quebec native has thrived. If he becomes a true #1 in Montreal, this RC appreciates significantly.
