The Montreal Canadiens aim to secure their third consecutive victory on Saturday evening against the Washington Capitals at the Bell Centre.

With puck drop scheduled just after 7 p.m., fans can catch the action on various networks. Notably, Alexander Ovechkin will be sidelined for the Capitals due to a knee injury. Meanwhile, Nick Suzuki is set to play his 400th NHL game, riding a five-game point streak, and Kaiden Guhle returns after a brief absence due to illness. Sam Montembeault will be the starting goaltender.
