Daniel Carr to return to Habs lineup
The forward would replace the injured Artturi Lehkonen
It looks as though the Montreal Canadiens forward Daniel Carr will return to the Habs lineup for the first time since the second game of the season.
Carr skated with the power play units during the team’s morning skate in Brossard, but the team did not have line rushes so there was no clue as to where they would be playing.
#Habs power play units:
— John Lu (@JohnLuTSNMtl) November 8, 2016
Galchenyuk - Shaw - Radulov
Markov - Weber
Pacioretty - Plekanec - Gallagher
Beaulieu - Petry
The fact that Shaw was listed as on the first power play unit means it is likely that he takes Artturi Lehkonen’s spot on that line and Carr would slide in with David Desharnais and Paul Byron, however, Shaw has had power play time despite playing on the third line at even strength.
Update: We were wrong.
#Habs: Daniel Carr jouera à l’aile avec David Desharnais et Andrew Shaw.

Les trios probables face aux Bruins:
— J-F Chaumont (@JFChaumontJDM) November 8, 2016
Byron-Galchenyuk-Radulov
Pacioretty-Plekanec-Gallagher
Carr-Desharnais-Shaw
Danault-Mitchell-Flynn
It does look like Sven Andrighetto, who was recalled yesterday, will be a healthy scratch tonight against the Boston Bruins. There has been no confirmation of lineup changes yet. Carey Price should get the start.
