Following a gruesome loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday, the Canadiens will look to end their trip to the West Coast on a positive note with a Halloween Sunday game against the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center. Disco drop at 4pm (TSN2, RDS, TSN 690 Radio, 98.5 FM).

With a win, the Habs will be tied on the road at 2-2. They are currently 2-7 on the season and in last place in the Atlantic Division.

Like their rivals in Los Angeles, the Ducks are in the midst of rebuilding. Anaheim has two wins on the season, but they have also scored points from three overtime losses.

Hard-hitting forward Nicolas Deslauriers has found a home in Orange County after the Ducks acquired him from Montreal in 2019. He is in his third season as a Duck.

Samuel Montembeault is expected to start in the Canadiens’ goal. Jake Allen has started all but one game for the Habs this season.
