Here’s an excerpt from the Globesports.com/CP article:

Notes: Kovalev was placed on a line Saturday with Lang and Latendresse. Lang and Kovalev enjoyed the most productive years of their careers playing together in Pittsburgh with Martin Straka, now playing in his native Czech Republic. Carbonneau said he plans on keeping Kovalev with Plekanec and Kostitsyn this season, but the prior chemistry with Lang could come into play at some point. …New acquisition Alex Tanguay is playing on the right wing in camp as opposed to his usual position on the left side. Carbonneau said some players will have to make the adjustment because none of his top six wingers have right-handed shots. …The Canadiens begin their pre-season schedule Monday in Halifax, the first of six exhibition games in seven nights. Carbonneau said Jaroslav Halak will start the game against Boston in Halifax while newly-acquired Marc Denis will play Tuesday in Roberval, Que., against Buffalo. Denis is from nearby Chicoutimi, Que. Andrei and Sergei Kostitsyn, as well as defence prospect Yannick Weber, still have visa issues to clear up and therefore were not eligible to travel to Detroit for Wednesday’s game against the Red Wings
