The Canadiens of Montreal will be back in action tonight, as the Philadelphia Flyers will be visiting the Bell Centre.

In preparation for this matchup, the Habs practiced this morning before addressing the media.

Even though the Habs are on a three-game winning streak, everyone was watching to see if Martin St-Louis would make any changes to his lineup.

It was possible that Oliver Kapanen and/or Arber Xhekaj could have played tonight, but once again, there will be no changes to the lineup.

Martin St-Louis himself confirmed this at the end of the press conference.

This means Arber Xhekaj will be left out for the 4th game in a row, while Joshua Roy will miss his 5th consecutive game.

On the other hand, this means Michael Pezzetta will play his 4th consecutive game tonight, as he will once again be on the team’s fourth line.

This is only the second time Pezzetta has played as many games in a row this season, having previously done so only at the beginning of January.

Pezzetta has thus managed to earn his spot for a little while, and he must take advantage of it.

Finally, in goal, without any surprise, it will be Samuel Montembeault who will start.

Once again, this will be an extremely important game, as the Habs cannot afford to lose points, especially with the Rangers right behind them.

In short, the Habs must not fall into the trap of the Philadelphia Flyers, as they did last week.


Overtime

– Not to be missed tomorrow.

– Interesting.

– What a moment!

– Patrick Kane also made history last night.

– He surely contributed to it.
