Groulx will make his NHL debut on Wednesday.

The Devils have signed Jimmy Vesey to a one-year contract.
Vesey went into Devils training camp on a PTO and came out with a one-year deal after scoring two goals in three preseason games. Most recently, Vesey was in Vancouver, where he had just three assists in 20 games in 2021.
The Rangers have signed Mika Zibanejad to an eight-year contract extension.
Zibanejad is entering the final year of a five-year, $26.75M contract and is now signed through the 2030 season. The $8.5M AAV cap-hit represents a $3.15M AAV raise for the 28-year-old centre, who has registered 199 points (95G / 104A) in 195 games over the last three seasons.
The Flames have re-signed Connor Mackey to a two-year contract.
The Rangers have re-signed Libor Hajek to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Penguins have signed Louis Domingue to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Sabres have re-signed Casey Fitzgerald to a two-year, two-way contract.
The Rangers have signed Brennan Othmann to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The Rangers have signed Igor Shesterkin to a four-year contract extension worth $22.666 million ($5.65M AAV).
The Kraken have signed Will Borgen to a two-year contract.
The Jets have signed Riley Nash to a one-year contract.
The Hurricanes have signed C.J. Smith to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Flyers have signed Cooper Zech to a one-year, entry-level contract.
The Sharks have signed Nick Bonino to a two-year contract worth $4.1 million ($2.05M AAV).
The Predators have signed Ben Harpur to a one-year, $800k contract extension.
Harpur has been around the NHL for a number of seasons, picking up seven assists in 34 games in his first season with the Predators. Harpur will likely be a reserve defenseman again in 2021-22 and is capable of stepping in when injuries occur.
The Canadiens have signed Alex Belzile to a one-year, two-way contract extension.
Belzile had another strong AHL campaign in 2021, scoring four goals with 10 assists (14 points) in 17 games with Laval. He's an AHL veteran with just two games of NHL experience, so expect the 29-year-old to remain with Laval to start the 2021-22 season.
The Ducks have signed Sam Carrick to a one-year contract extension.
Carrick split the 2021 campaign between the AHL and NHL, finishing with six points (2G / 4A) in 13 games with the Ducks. He finished sixth among San Diego (AHL) skaters in points-per-game, scoring 14 goals with 10 assists (24 points) in 27 games (0.889 Pts/gm).
