A lot of the Habs' talent will not be taking part in tonight's game, but we'll still see Arber Xhekaj.
Talking about Xhekaj, here's what he had to say about tonight's clash against the Leafs and Reaves:
Habs Arber Xhekaj on #Leafs Ryan Reaves in the line-up for Toronto tonight: "obviously he's a physical player, I'm a physical player so I don't know, we might run into each other a few times... we'll see."
He won't be alone: the 6' 7'', 235-pound John Parker-Jones will be there too.
"Armia - Monahan - Anderson
Pearson - Evans - Gallagher
Roy - Beck - Ylonen
Mysak - Stephens - Parker-Jones
Harris - Mailloux
Xhekaj - Lindstrom

Primeau
Mann"
Everything is set for an interesting game despite the absence of some key players! One thing's certain: Martin St-Louis and the Habs won't back down from the challenge.
