With Brandon Sutter out with a lower-body injury, Gaudette earns another call-up in 2018-19. The 22-year-old has scored three goals with four assists (seven points) in 32 games with the Canucks this season. During his time in the AHL, Gaudette has 11 points (5G / 6A) in 14 games.

Price stopped 24 of the 25 shots that he faced in the Canadiens win over the Ducks on Tuesday. Price is riding a six-game winning streak, position a 1.33 GAA, .957 SV% and one shutout in the process. So far this season, Price is 12-9-2 with a 2.63 GAA, .908 SV% and two shutouts on home-ice.

Price surrendered three goals on 24 shots in the Canadiens win over the Oilers on Sunday. Price has been on-fire as of late, winning five straight starts while posting an impressive 1.39 GAA, .957 SV% and one shutout. He has been excellent and has the best matchup possible tonight. Anaheim played in Toronto last night, rank last in the NHL in goals/per game and have lost 16 of their last 18 (2-12-4).

Price will not be available for Saturday’s game vs. the Devils, so Michael McNiven has been recalled from Laval (AHL) to backup Antti Niemi. This one-game suspension isn’t a big deal considering the Habs have a back-to-back on Saturday/Sunday and Niemi likely would have started one of the games regardless. Price will face the Oilers on Sunday.

Price allowed one goal on 35 shots in the Canadiens win in Columbus last Friday. Price has been exceptional in his last three outings, going 3-0-0 while stopping 103 of the 106 shots that he has faced (.972 SV%). Tonight he draws an excellent matchup vs. a hot but banged up Coyotes team that is on the tail-end of a back-to-back.

Nedeljkovic has gone 20-5-0 with a 2.68 GAA and .903 SV% in 30 games with the Checkers this season. With Curtis McElhinney dealing with a knee injury, Nedeljkovic will back Mrazek up on Friday.

Price stopped 41 of 43 shots in the Canadiens win in Boston on Monday. Price has been excellent in his last two starts, stopping 69 of 71 shots (.972 SV%). Price has not faced Columbus this season but comes in at 9-4-2 with a 2.49 GAA, .922 SV% and one shutout on the road.

Sherwood has appeared in 46 of the Ducks 47 games this season but has just 10 points (5G / 5A). The 23-year-old will spend some time with the Gulls, where he has two goals in 12 career games.
