The Montreal Canadiens announced that goaltender Al Montoya has a concussion and will be out indefinitely. 

The injury was suspected to have taken place on a slapshot from Dustin Byfuglien that hit him in the mask last Saturday in Winnipeg.

With the injury to Carey Price and Montoya, Charlie Lindgren has filled in with Zach Fucale being called up on an emergency basis.

In three starts so far this season, Montoya has a 3.77 GAA and a save percentage of .863. 

Following Saturday's game against the Buffalo Sabres, the Habs will take on the Columbus Blue Jackets at the Bell Centre.
