The Habs will host Ottawa tomorrow night at the Bell Centre in a big game that may very well set the tone in the upper echelons of the Eastern Conference for the rest of the season. Montreal sits just 3 points behind Ottawa with 53 games played apiece - the two teams meet several more times over the remainder of the season so this game, at this point in the season, is huge.
The Senators will still be without Dany Heatley and Daniel Alfredsson and Martin Gerber is likely to get the start after Ray Emery’s rough 4-2 loss to Toronto. Christobal Huet didn’t play up to his usual standard in the Canadiens’ 5-3 loss to the Rangers on Sunday so I’m guessing Halak may finally get a chance to play - considering the import of this game, that may not happen. The call will likely be left to Huet as to whether he is too fatigued after playing two games over the weekend.
