SUNRISE - The Canadiens announced postgame on Thursday that they had recalled defenseman Brett Lernout from the AHL's Laval Rocket (emergency recall).
The 22-year-old rearguard played three games with the Habs this season in December. With the Rocket, the Habs third-round pick (73rd overall) in 2014 has skated in 54 games this season, recording eight points, including a goal. Lernout will meet the team in Tampa.
