Pittsburgh Penguins Notes:

The Penguins have lost two of three to start the season. The good news is Bryan Rust returned. The team likes Cody Glass, who is carving out a little role on the fourth line and with his size.

Montreal Canadiens Notes:

Montreal has started off this year with three games against their division opponents, winning two out of the three. They’ve sandwiched wins against Toronto and Ottawa around a loss to Boston.

Pittsburgh Penguins Lineup:

Beauvillier-Crosby-Rust

Bunting-Malkin-Rakell

McGroarty-Eller-Puljujarvi

Players To Watch:

Pittsburgh Penguins – Tristan Jarry is 6-1-1 with a 2.50 goals-against average, a .913 save percentage, and one shutout in nine career games against the Canadiens.

Montreal Canadiens – Sam Montembault has been the hot hand to start the season, stopping 72 out of the 73 shots he has faced so the Pens should probably expect to see him tonight.

Montreal – Rafael Harvey-Pinard (Leg – LTIR), Patrik Laine (Knee – IR), Reinbacher (Knee – LTIR)
