Patrik Laine scrimmaged on a line with Kirby Dach and Alex Newhook at training camp Friday for a second straight day.
Laine was limited to 18 games with the Columbus Blue Jackets last season while Dach is returning after sustaining a season-ending knee injury in the Canadiens' second game last season.
Dach looks forward to finding chemistry with his new linemates, which could provide Montreal with a substantial second line behind Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield and Juraj Slafkovsky.
"I thought today was better than yesterday," Dach said. "I think that's all it's going to take is some time. You watch 'Slaf', Cole and 'Suzi', you can tell that they played the last five, six months of the season together and they're kind of snapping it around, and it's definitely a place we want to get to as a line."
Montreal begins the preseason against the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday. They open the regular season against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Oct. 9.
