Defenseman Egor Zamula will be a healthy scratch, while Emil Andrae was recalled from the Lehigh Valley of the AHL.
The Canadiens will feature the same 18 skaters for the fifth consecutive game, with Sam Montembeault starting in goal for the second time in a row.
This matchup promises to be a competitive clash as both teams aim for victory to enhance their positions in the league standings.
