As we reported to you earlier, the defeat of the Canadian last Saturday, combined with the victory of the San Jose Sharks yesterday now places the Habs alone in the very last place in the general NHL rankings this morning.
The good news is that CH can quickly remedy the situation since, exceptionally, it will play a morning game today while it is in Buffalo to face the Sabres.
Note the time, the meeting will be presented at 12:30 p.m.
For the occasion, the coach Martin St. Louis decided to stir things up in order to break his team’s six-game losing streak. The Canadian has also lost 10 of his last 12 games.
See the trios and pairs of defenders he will send into the fray this afternoon.
