Last time the Montreal Canadiens and Ottawa Senators faced off, Tim Stützle drew the ire of Brendan Gallagher, who accused him of feigning injury. At the Canadian Tire Center on Saturday night, both teams will have one more chance to renew hostilities before the season is out. The game will be underground just after 7 pm (SNE, City, TVA Sports, TSN Radio 690, 98.5 FM).

Michael Pezzetta has served his time following a two-game suspension, while Jordan Harris will take Kale Clague’s spot on the blueline. Rafaël Harvey-Pinard was reassigned to Laval.

Carey Price is expected to start in goal for a third consecutive game.

This will be the first game played by the Habs since the passing of Guy Lafleur. The players will wear number 10 patches on their sweaters.
