Cowan: Canadiens hoping Kirby Dach can hold spot on No. 1 line

“It’s nice,” Dach said last week about head coach Martin St. Louis putting him on the No. 1 line. “Obviously, there’s a familiarity there with Cole and Suzy. I played with them in previous years, so just trying to find my way and where they need me to be on the ice. Just focus on what I need to do. Details defensively, offensively. Manage the puck well and continue to just be hard on the forecheck, win pucks back for them and then go to the net and make plays.”
