Coming off of one of their biggest wins of the year in Boston on Monday night, the Montreal Canadiens returned home for a meeting with the Florida Panthers. After Carey Price stymied the Bruins, it was Antti Niemi’s turn in net. Niemi was looking for a third straight win after turning in two great showings against the Detroit Red Wings and Dallas Stars, and the Panthers were ripe for the picking.
Claude Julien confirmed before the game that there would be no other lineup changes from the group that won the previous night.
