The Montreal Canadiens most recent call up from Hamilton, Benoit Gratton, will be playing tonight. Jose Theodore, dinged on the collarbone by a Pierre Dagenais shot prior to the Habs 5-4 OT win against the Nashville Predators, will also be starting.
Despite making the trip to Toronto, Patrice Brisebois and Yanic Perreault will be watching from the pressbox, as they continue to nurse injuries. To make room for Gratton in the lineup, Donald Audette, who continues to struggle this season, will not be playing.
