The Montreal Canadiens welcome the Vegas Golden Knights to the Bell Centre for the first time tonight, and while in the summer you would have expected to see Marc-Andre Fleury against Carey Price, tonight’s goaltending matchup is... decidedly not that.
Charlie Lindgren will get his second straight start after a shutout in Chicago on Sunday, while Maxime Lagace should start for the Golden Knights. Vegas played last night in Toronto, so there is a chance that emergency call up Dylan Ferguson will play his first NHL game.
Charles Hudon seems poised for a return to the lineup after missing the Blackhawks game with an upper body injury.
