Canadiens' Al Montoya: Starting Tuesday's preseason contest

Montoya will start in goal in Tuesday's preseason game against the Capitals.

Analysis:

Montoya is expected to serve as Carey Price's primary backup this season, and will want to play well in what will be his Canadiens debut Tuesday against Washington. The 31-year-old backstop will split goaltending duties with 2013 second-round pick Zach Fucale in Tuesday's tilt.
