It’s a new week and another opportunity for the Montreal Canadiens to respond. The team is currently on the west coast of the United States starting their California road trip which will see them take on the Los Angeles Kings, Anaheim Ducks, and San Jose Sharks. Considering the nicely sized egg the Habs left at the Bell Centre on Saturday, they’ll want to dig in and have another response starting with the Kings. However, the team will have to do it without Jesperi Kotkaniemi.
Claude Julien addressed the media as the Habs had their morning skate where he stated that the 18-year-old is being made a healthy scratch ahead of the game.
