Canadiens Preview: Kapanen Unavailable Versus Penguins
from Montreal Hockey Now, by Marc Dumont,
The Montreal Canadiens are set to play their second game of the season Saturday night, facing the Pittsburgh Penguins at PPG Paints Arena. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET.
Although the Canadiens edged the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-2 in their season opener, the performance was far from perfect. The top line is still working to build chemistry following the arrival of Chris Kreider, a process that should improve as the season progresses. Phenom Lane Hutson posted underwhelming underlying numbers, though he too is developing chemistry with defensive partner Alexandre Carrier.
