KEY GAME INFORMATION
MONTREAL: LAST SEASON: 46-28-8, 100 points; lost to New York Rangers in Eastern Conference final.
COACH: Michel Therrien, seventh season with Canadiens, 287-224-23-58.
ADDED: D Tom Gilbert, C Manny Malhotra, RW P.A. Parenteau, RW Jiri Sekac.
LOST: C Daniel Briere, RW Brian Gionta, D Josh Gorges, LW Thomas Vanek.
PLAYER TO WATCH: P.K. Subban: The 43rd overall pick in the 2007 draft solidified his status as a top-five defenseman in the NHL following a 2013-14 regular season in which he recorded 53 points (10 goals, 43 assists) in 82 games, and added another 11 (five goals and six assists) in 17 playoff games. And he isn't going anywhere. The Canadiens and Subban agreed to an eight-year, $72 million contract in the offseason.
OUTLOOK: The Canadiens earned the ire of playoff foes Boston and New York for on-ice antics and their off-ice loquaciousness. But teams don't dislike opponents who aren't good. The Canadiens are just that, and should find themselves in the playoffs come April.
NY RANGERS: LAST SEASON: 45-31-6, 96 points. Finished 2nd in Metropolitan Division, 5th in Eastern Conference. Lost to Los Angeles Kings in Stanley Cup finals.
COACH: Alain Vigneault, 2nd season with Rangers (45-31-6); 13th overall in NHL (467-319-102).
ADDED: D Dan Boyle, D Mike Kostka, D Matt Hunwick, C Chris Mueller, LW Tanner Glass, G Cedrick Desjardins, C Matthew Lombardi, RW Lee Stempniak, LW Ryan Malone.
LOST: C Brad Richards, RW Derek Dorsett, C Brian Boyle, D Anton Stralman, LW Benoit Pouliot, D Justin Falk, RW Arron Asham, LW Daniel Carcillo, D Raphael Diaz, C Darroll Powe.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Rick Nash. The top forward will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing postseason in which the 2002 No. 1 draft notched only three goals and 10 points in 25 games and heard boos from the crowd. The 30-year-old left wing has come to training camp looking thinner and fitter as he heads into his third season with the Rangers. Nash has four seasons left for big money on his current contract, so there is plenty of time for him to win over the Madison Square Garden faithful.
OUTLOOK: The Rangers will go as far as goalie Henrik Lundqvist, ''The King,'' will take them. The team has undergone major changes since the run to the finals, but with the strong core of returning veterans such as Nash, Martin St. Louis, and defensemen Dan Girardi and Ryan McDonagh, fortified by newcomers Dan Boyle, Lee Stempniak and Ryan Malone, New York could again be a tough out in the playoffs. A new captain is expected to be announced at the start of the season to replace the trio of alternate captains that took leadership roles after former captain Ryan Callahan was traded to Tampa Bay late last season for St. Louis.

*Canadiens-Rangers Preview* ===========================

By JORDAN GARRETSON STATS Writer

Montreal (15-5-1) at New York (8-7-4), 7:00 p.m. EDT

The New York Rangers are catching a break by avoiding a matchup with Carey Price - as they did for most of last season's Eastern Conference finals.

They're hoping it helps them at least temporarily halt the Montreal Canadiens' recent dominance in the regular-season series.

New York will try to avoid a 14th loss in 18 meetings Sunday night when it hosts Montreal.

Price suffered a knee injury during a collision with Chris Kreider in Game 1 of the East finals between these teams, sidelining him for the rest of an eventual 4-2 series win for New York. Though Price gave up four goals on 20 shots, his absence was likely integral to the Rangers' victory.

He stopped 34 shots in a 3-1 home win over New York on Oct. 25 - the Canadiens' 13th in the last 17 regular-season matchups. Montreal (16-5-1) has outscored the Rangers 46-23 in that span with seven shutouts. Price has five of those shutouts and is 6-2-0 with a 0.87 goals-against average in his last eight regular-season starts against Montreal. However, Dustin Tokarski will start Sunday after Price made 33 saves in Saturday's 2-0 win at Boston, the club's eighth victory in nine games.

Tokarski is 3-1-0 with a 1.21 GAA in four starts this season and posted a 2.60 GAA for the playoff series versus New York.

The Rangers (8-7-4) were scheduled to play Friday at Buffalo but the game was postponed due to the severe storm in the area. They ended a three-game skid with Wednesday's 2-0 win over Philadelphia as Cam Talbot made 31 saves in his fourth start. Henrik Lundqvist, who posted a 2.15 GAA in the East finals, had given up five goals on 30 shots in Monday's 5-1 loss to Tampa Bay - New York's worst defeat of the season.

"To be able to come out today and provide a big win after what's been kind of a low stretch for us, it's pretty big," Talbot said.

Though Rick Nash scored his team-leading 13th goal, the Rangers are still slumping offensively with five goals in their last three games. Nash, who had three goals in the playoff series, is without a point in four straight regular-season games versus Montreal. Derick Brassard and Martin St. Louis, who are tied for second on the team with 15 points, have also struggled with Brassard going without a point in four straight regular-season meetings and St. Louis recording one point in his last five.

St. Louis does have six goals in his last nine games overall after scoring once in his first 10.

The Canadiens, who had goals Saturday by Andrei Markov and Tomas Plekanec with Brendan Gallagher assisting on each, have scored 29 goals in the wins during their 8-1-0 run. Saturday marked the fourth straight time they won while being outshot.

New York has made some strides on its power play, scoring Wednesday to move to 7 for 28 over the last nine games. The unit had two goals on its previous 28 chances.
