The Stars and Canadiens are finally meeting up for the first time since this summer. Jordie and Jamie Benn’s parents will be watching. Charlie Lindgren will be playing goalie. Antti Niemi will be on the bench, to begin things. Joe Morrow and David Schlemko (injured) could be rounding out the half of the Montreal blue line that passed through Dallas at one point in their career. Could you have imagined, four years ago, that Joe Morrow and Maxime Lagace would be playing NHL hockey today while Val Nichushkin and Jack Campbell are not? Man, things are crazy sometimes.
The media will be focused on Alexander Radulov.
