BROSSARD – Nick Suzuki was the lone Hab absent from Wednesday’s practice at the CN Sports Complex.

As has often been the case lately, the Canadiens captain opted for a therapy day.

With Suzuki resting, Cole Caufield, Ivan Demidov, Oliver Kapanen, Alex Newhook and Juraj Slafkovsky rotated through line drills, while the bottom six remained intact.

On defense, it was business as usual.

Martin St-Louis announced following Wednesday’s session that Jakub Dobes would get the start for the Canadiens when they host the Dallas Stars on Thursday. For tickets, click here .
