The Montreal Canadiens are expected to announce the return of defenceman Joel Edmundson, who was injured before training camp following contact with Nick Suzuki.
Three defencemen could lose their spots in the lineup:
- Johnathan Kovacevic
- Chris Wideman
- Arber Xhekaj
However, according to Georges Laraque, it is the new kid, Kovacevic, who should be left out.
The Habs face the Sabres in Buffalo tonight at 7pm.
