Tonight at the Bell Centre, the Montreal Canadiens face the Utah Mammoth as part of Hockey Fights Cancer night, a very important game for the Habs.
The team returns home in front of their fans after a trip to New Jersey, and a strong atmosphere is expected right from the opening minutes.
Many wanted to know if there would be any changes to the lines and, most importantly, who would be in goal.
The Montreal Canadiens’ Lineup Is Now Confirmed
No changes to the forward lines.
Roles and responsibilities remain the same.
“Everybody was on the ice at Canadiens’ morning skate on Saturday, except for Mike Matheson, however the defenseman is expected to be in uniform against the Mammoth.”
– Canadiens
FORWARDS:
Caufield – Suzuki – Slafkovsky
Newhook – Kapanen – Demidov
Bolduc – Dach – Gallagher
Anderson – Evans – Veleno
DEFENSEMEN:
Matheson – Struble
Dobson – Hutson
Xhekaj – Carrier
Also, I had the impression that Nick Suzuki might not have been at 100% in the last game. I really hope he’s in top shape tonight, because the Habs need him completely healthy!I’m also looking forward to seeing if Zach Bolduc and Ivan Demidov will be used a bit more. They played very little on Thursday.
Just two or three extra shifts can change their whole night.
The game starts at 7:00 p.m. at the Bell Centre.

Do you think Ivan Demidov should get more ice time at five-on-five?
