| | | TORONTO: LAST SEASON: 38-6-8, 84 points, finished 12th in the East and missed the playoffs.
COACH: Randy Carlyle, fifth season with the Leafs, 343-244-77.
ADDED: RW Matt Frattin, C Leo Komarov, D Roman Polak, D Stephane Robidas, C Mike Santorelli.
LOST: C Dave Bolland, D Tim Gleason, D Carl Gunnerson, C Jay McClement, RW Nikolai Kulemin, LW Mason Raymond.
PLAYER TO WATCH: David Clarkson. The right winger's first season with his boyhood team was one he'd rather forget. Clarkson had with 11 points (five goals and six assists) in 60 games with a minus-14 rating after agreeing to a seven-year, $36.75 million deal with Toronto.
OUTLOOK: The hirings of Brendan Shanahan as team president, Kyle Dubas as the assistant general manager and the added emphasis of analytics seem to indicate a new day for the Leafs. But much of the team that lost 12 of their final 14 games last season has returned. Coupled with the fact that the Leafs are in a division with 2013-14 playoff teams in Boston, Tampa Bay, Montreal and Detroit, it's hard to envision a scenario in which Toronto shows enough improvement to contend for a postseason berth in 2014-15. | | 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. |

*Maple Leafs-Canadiens Preview* ===============================
By JACK CASSIDY STATS Writer
Toronto (25-31-5) at Montreal (40-16-5), 7:00 p.m. EDT
The Montreal Canadiens have raced to the top spot in the Eastern Conference behind stellar performances from their star players, most notably Carey Price.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have spent the last two-plus months going in the opposite direction, but they're coming off their first back-to-back wins since December as they face the Canadiens on Saturday night.
Max Pacioretty scored his team-leading 30th goal, P.K. Subban had three points and a career-best plus-five rating and Price allowed two or fewer goals for the ninth straight start in a 5-2 win at Columbus on Thursday.
Andrei Markov also posted a plus-five rating - which ties the best mark in the NHL this season - and rookie Jacob De La Rose scored his first two career goals.
"It was a lot of fun tonight," Pacioretty said. "We played pretty well offensively. Maybe a couple too many turnovers, but it's nice to see the boys make plays and have them get rewarded, especially guys like Rosey."
Pacioretty scored for the fifth time in six games, while Subban has 11 points in his last eight.
Price has gone 13-1-1 with a 1.31 goals-against average in his last 15 starts. One of them came Feb. 14, when he made 28 saves in Montreal's 2-1 shootout victory over Toronto (25-31-5).
The Leafs have scored seven goals in winning their past two after dropping five straight. Toronto had totaled six goals in the previous four.
Phil Kessel and Dion Phaneuf scored and Jonathan Bernier made a season-high 47 saves in a 3-2 victory over Philadelphia on Thursday.
"I'm just trying to do my job here," Bernier said. "That was a tough call before the game that we found out (David Clarkson had been traded to Columbus). But at the same time when you're not doing so well, there's going to be big changes."
The Leafs also dealt forward Daniel Winnik to Pittsburgh on Wednesday, and more moves are possible with Toronto in sell mode before Monday's trade deadline.
"I think there's never anyone that's untradeable," Phaneuf said. "Anyone can be moved."
Toronto hasn't won three in a row since a six-game run Dec. 6-16, and the club has gone 6-22-2 since that streak to sink toward the bottom of the conference.
The Leafs' record on the road suggests another victory will be hard to come by in this game. The Leafs are 0-12-2 away from home in 2015, and Montreal has won the last four meetings in the series.
Forward Devante Smith-Pelly made his Canadiens debut Thursday and logged 17 minutes, recording two shots on goal.
"He played really well for his first game," Pacioretty said of Smith-Pelly, acquired from Anaheim on Tuesday. "Having a big body like that is always nice. It seems like you can insert him in different areas of the lineup and have him be successful. Having versatility like that is important as the season goes on."
Smith-Pelly had five goals and 12 assists in 54 games with the Ducks.
