Montreal Canadiens lines at morning skate: Plekanec’s 1000th game, Shaw questionable, Niemi starts again

There may be a flu bug making its way through the Montreal Canadiens at this point, as Andrew Shaw stayed home from the team’s morning skate on Monday, battling the virus. He is questionable for Monday’s game against the Detroit Red Wings.

#Habs vs #RedWings:
Tatar - Danault - Gallagher
Drouin - Domi - Lehkonen
Byron - Kotkaniemi - Armia
Hudon - Plekanec - Peca

Mete - Petry
Reilly - Juulsen
Ouellet - Benn

If Shaw is unable to go, it looks like Matthew Peca would be his replacement in the Canadiens lineup, not Nikita Scherbak.
