MONTREAL - Here's a numerical look at Tuesday night's game between the Canadiens and Bruins at the Bell Centre. 18 – Number of major titles World Golf Hall-of-Famer Jack Nicklaus claimed over the course of his illustrious career, tops on the all-time list among male golfers. The now 76-year-old Ohio native, who was in attendance at the Bell Centre on Tuesday night, read out the starting lineup in the Canadiens’ dressing room prior to the game against the Boston Bruins. 14 – Number of saves Carey Price made during the first period alone on Tuesday night as the Bruins pressed for the game’s opening goal. The All-World netminder was stellar early on, though, as per usual, denying Claude Julien’s contingent during a scoreless first period. 4 – Number of power play goals Shea Weber has amassed so far this season, which has him tied for the league lead in that department. Weber lit the lamp with a wicked slap shot from the top of the circle that left Bruins goaltender Zane McIntyre helpless as the Canadien

BROSSARD - The Canadiens skated at the Bell Sports Complex in Brossard on Tuesday morning in preparation for their game against the Boston Bruins at the Bell Centre. - It will mark the second meeting between the two teams this season. Back on October 22, the Canadiens downed the Bruins 4-2 at TD Garden in Boston. - All players were present and accounted for during the on-ice session, expect for Artturi Lehkonen and Zach Redmond, of course, both of whom are currently sidelined due to injury. - After taking a therapy day on Monday, captain Max Pacioretty was back on the ice skating alongside his teammates. Sven Andrighetto was out there as well following his call-up from the AHL's St. John's IceCaps on Monday afternoon. The Swiss forward will not be uniform, though, against Boston. "I can't control when I get a chance to play, but I'll be ready whenever they need me in the lineup, whether it's in two days or next week. I don't know when, but I'll be ready," said Andrighetto. - Daniel Carr will, h

BOS (6-5-0) @ MTL (10-1-1) The Canadiens host the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night at the Bell Centre. It’s a second meeting between the two teams this season; the Canadiens won the first 4-2 in Boston on October 22, thanks to a shorthanded goal from Paul Byron in the final frame. Artturi Lehkonen won’t be in uniform on Tuesday, nor for the rest of the week, having been placed on the injured reserve list on Monday. The 21-year-old left Saturday’s game with an upper body injury. Daniel Carr should be back in the lineup in place of the Finnish forward. Max Pacioretty meanwhile should also be in uniform after taking a treatment day at practice to start the week. Carey Price is likely to get the start in goal, and remains perfect this season with a 7-0-0 record. At the other end of the ice, the Habs will face a Bruins team which arrived in Montreal early Tuesday morning, coming off a 4-0 win against the Buffalo Sabres on Monday. With his eighth goal of the season against the Sabres, David Pa

BROSSARD - The Canadiens haven't been playing perfect hockey as of late, but they've still been finding ways to win and picking up valuable points in the standings. Last Friday night's loss in Columbus aside, of course, Michel Therrien's contingent is off to a remarkable 10-1-1 start to begin the year, which has them sitting atop the league, one point clear of the New York Rangers entering Monday night's action. While some victories haven't come as easily as others, like their last three - the 2-1 win over Toronto on October 29, the 3-0 win over Vancouver on November 2, or their most recent win on Saturday night over the Philadelphia Flyers - there really isn't any sense of concern in the Canadiens' locker room right now given what they've managed to accomplish already. "I think it's important for us to be honest with ourselves. There have been times this year when we've certainly won games and maybe we were fortunate to get the result," admitted Brendan Gallagher, referencing the aforementioned wins
