The Montreal Canadiens have recalled 10 players from their AHl Hamilton Bulldog minor league club.

Goaltenders Devan Dubnyk and Dustin Tokarski, defencemen Nathan Beaulieu, Davis Drewiske and Greg Pateryn as well as forwards Sven Andrighetto, Michael Blunden, Gabriel Dumont, Louis Leblanc and Christian Thomas will all practice with the team and be used if needed in the playoffs.

The Bulldogs' season has already ended, as their 33-35-8 record left them in 13th place in the Western Conference, well out of the playoffs under second year coach Sylvain Lefebvre.
