Canadiens Coach Michel Therrien wasn't too down about lacking style points against Buffalo after victories that ended the Bruins winning streak and over rival, Torotono.
"You can't have the same emotion in every game, but what I liked about our team [Tuesday] was that we didn't change anything," Therrien told NHL.com. "They got a great game from [goaltender Matt Hackett]. He made some great saves, especially in the second period, but we didn't worry about Buffalo. We played our game and that's what we have to do."
The Red Wings have recently been bolstered by the return of Darren Helm and Joakim Andersson. Tomas Jurco, who has been out for two weeks with injured ribs, is expected to play Thursday.
"The big thing is you get them back, but they're good for one game and then it takes them about three games to get their conditioning up to speed," Babcock told NHL.com.
Rookie forward Tomas Jurco (rib) is set to play against Montreal and top center Pavel Datsyuk (knee) might be close to returning. Meanwhile, forward Gustav Nyquist has scored a goal in six straight games and has 25 goals in 47 contests, according to ESPN.com.
"Maybe [he] found out that he can shoot the puck," Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said. "That's something we suggested wouldn't be such a bad idea, shooting the puck, and now he's on a roll and feeling good about himself."
