“We're not looking to make changes. The only time we're looking to make changes is if something's not working; right now we like the direction that we're headed in.”
Those were the words from head coach Bill Peters after Thursday’s practice and it rang true at today’s pregame skate. The team enters tonight’s match with the lineup that has resulted in a two-game win streak.

The Canadiens didn’t hold a pre-game skate this morning, so tonight’s projected lineup is based on how the team lined up in Thursday’s practice.
