After a visit to Chicago last night which ended in a 4-2 defeat, the Canadian will try to get back to winning ways against the Avalanche this evening.
Despite a defeat yesterday, things are going well for the troop Martin St-Louis for a few weeks and they have proven that they can play their best hockey against the big teams on the circuit after beating the Panthers, the Lightning and the Golden Knights one after the other.
Deprived of Patrik Laine (flu symptoms) and David Savard (upper body injury) yesterday, it will be the case again this evening.
Michael Pezzetta will therefore play a 2nd match in a row and Jayden Struble will take Savard’s place in defense.
Here is the lineup that will face the Avalanche:
ROSTER – CANADIANS
ATTACKERS
Caufield – Suzuki – Slafkovsky
Newhook – Dach – Pezzetta
Gallagher – Dvorak – Anderson
Heineman – Evans – Armia
DEFENDERS
Hutson – Matheson
Guhle – Carrier
Xhekaj- Struble
GOALKEEPERS
Beds
Montembeault
- Jakub Dobes will play his second NHL game after posting a shutout in his first outing.
