Montreal Canadiens vs Anaheim Ducks
After a surprising start to the season, the Canadiens stayed hot in January thanks to the return of captain Shea Weber and a return-to-form from Carey Price.
They snuck away with an exciting overtime victory against the Edmonton Oilers on Sunday and look to stay on track against the visiting Anaheim Ducks tonight at the Bell Centre.
Look for Price to be back between the pipes and keep an eye out on rookie Jesperi Kotkaniemi who seems to be heating up.
