A seventh round pick of the Canadiens in 2017, Primeau skated with the Habs this morning and will back-up Jakub Dobes if Samuel Montembeault can not play after leaving game three with an injury.
The Rocket are hoping to get Primeau back before their North Division Semifinal series against the Cleveland Monsters.
