Two more Habs join voluntary practices in Brossard

MONTREAL -- Slowly but safely, hockey is returning to Brossard.

The pair's arrival brings the total of number of players taking part in small group sessions on Montreal's south shore to 21:

Still, leave it to a Phase 2 "veteran" to steal the show, as Michael McNiven made a pair of incredible saves against Paul Byron during the morning session.

Sorry Ben and Dale.

Training camp -- or Phase 3 -- of the NHL's Return to Play Plan is tentatively scheduled to begin on July 13.
