Canadiens vs. Ducks: Game thread, rosters, lines, and how to watch
The Habs are still looking for their first win on the California trip.
The Montreal Canadiens are looking to avoid going 0-3 in California this season. Their chances are not looking great as they have been struggling in all areas and seem to spiral at the smallest mistake. However, Claude Julien seems to be preaching patience as he is not changing the lineup from their last game as they face off against the Anaheim Ducks.
Although the lines and defensive pairings are staying the same, Julien is giving the net back to his starting goalie Carey Price. Price has struggled to start the year, but he has bounced back from rough patches before.
Puck drop is at 10:00 PM EDT / 7:00 PM PDT
