I still haven't seen the information come through today, but anyway, please note a change from the Montreal Canadiens' usual schedule.

Tonight's game will not take place at 7:00 p.m., as usual, but at 7:30 p.m.!
That also explains why head coach Martin St-Louis showed up a bit later than usual for his traditional pregame press conference.

A schedule change for the Montreal Canadiens players

Speaking of Martin St-Louis' colorful press conference today, let's recall this:
Regarding the small schedule change, it's simply explained by the fact that the game will be broadcast on Amazon Prime Video tonight:
Jakub Dobes, 24 years old, has a 6-1-1 record this season with a 2.70 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage.
We will see a fairly different lineup today for Martin St-Louis' squad, as Alex Newhook and Kirby Dach will obviously be absent.
This will open the door for young players like Jared Davidson and Joshua Roy, who will absolutely need to seize their opportunity!
It's going to be an interesting game tonight!
