Montreal Canadiens

Tyler Toffoli skated this morning on a line with Jonathan Drouin and Jesperi Kotkaniemi. He also saw time with the power play unit, indicating a return to the lineup tonight against the Ottawa Senators. 

Head coach Dominique Ducharme says Toffoli is technically a game-time decision for Saturday's game against the Ottawa Senators, but is expected to play.

Toffoli has missed Montreal's last three games with a lower body injury. 

Joel Armia is at least a couple days away from returning to Montreal's practice facility.
