Unless there is a major change, Alex Barré-Boulet, Michael Pezzetta, and Jayden Struble will be left out, while young Emil Heineman will rejoin the lineup.
On defense, note the return of Jayden Struble to practice.
However, despite this, the third defensive pairing of Justin Barron and Arber Xhekaj remains intact for tonight's game.
So, Struble will be left out, which is somewhat surprising if he is truly healthy again.
There's also a not-so-surprising change in goal, as Quebec native Samuel Montembeault will be back in net after his outstanding performance against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Here are the full combinations (lines and pairings):
Cole Caufield-Nick Suzuki-Juraj Slafkovsky
Alex Newhook-Kirby Dach-Joel Armia
Josh Anderson-Jake Evans-Brendan Gallagher
Emil Heineman-Christian Dvorak-Oliver Kapanen
Mike Matheson-Kaiden Guhle
Arber Xhekaj-Justin Barron
