Daniel Carr missed the last two periods with a lower body injury and with Jacob de la Rose a healthy scratch for the last few games, they didn’t need to call anyone up for one game before the All-Star break.
Ben Scrivens will get the start for the Canadiens after Mike Condon allowed four goals against Columbus last night.

The moves shouldn’t come as a surprise, really. It will be interesting to see who gets the spot next to Lars Eller and Tomas Fleischmann and who will play on the fourth line.
As for Scrivens, back-to-back games against the same team often will see a goalie change, especially with the All-Star break looming.
The Canadiens will need to get a win here before the break as back to back losses against the worst team in the league will be a tough pill to swallow.
