The Canadiens could no longer have requested their opponent for the last game of the regular season if the Habs need a point. None of Sebastian Aho, Seth Jarvis, Jordan Staal and Jaccob Slavin is in the line -up, since the organization is looking for a little rest for their star players before the night. In contrast to the Chicago Blackhawks, who wanted to prove that it could be better next year, and Montreal gave a real test (together with the Winnipeg Jets and the Senators of Ottawa to complete the season), the Hurricanes hope that nobody is hurt before they hope that a long -term playoff run.

Montreal has to claim a point against this squad, something you have achieved in the last two games, including the Schwarzhawks team. Montreal has a somewhat fresh Ivan Demidov in the third line and this evening they will have Emil Heineman back for the first time since April 5, so that his body has recovered for two weeks. He has not been the same effective player since he returned to the line -up after the 4 nations were interrupted in 20 games after he had accumulated 17 in the first 41 games. But he plays hard along the boards that fight for the puck, and in a team that did not have the energy to play this last game, this effort could only be the difference to achieve a goal for his line or the second power play unit.
