Price allowed three goals on 43 shots in the Canadiens loss in Philadelphia on Thursday. On Saturday, Price will be making his fourth consecutive start--he has gone 1-1-1 with the 3.36 GAA and .907 SV% in the previous three games. Tonight he faces a Los Angeles team that has lost five in a row on the road while scoring just 1.40 goals per game.
Gaudette has played in the last four games since being called up and has picked up three points (1G / 2A) during that time. However, Sven Baertschi will replace Gaudette in the lineup in Winnipeg.
Price gave up three goals on 39 shots I the Canadiens loss in Dallas on Saturday. The loss snapped a brief two-game winning streak for Price, who comes into Tuesday's game at 3-3-0 with a 2.55 GAA, .903 SV% and one shutout on home-ice. He was 2-2-0 with a 2.28 GAA, .938 SV% and one shutout vs. the Bruins last year but they are a ridiculous 11-1-2 and average 3.71 goals per game (3rd) this year, so beware.
Price allowed one goal on 33 shots in the Canadiens win in Arizona on Wednesday. Keith Kinkaid got the nod on Thursday, so Price will likely start Saturday night in Dallas. Price has won four of his last five while posting an impressive 1.82 GAA, .935 SV% and one shutout. Price is playing very well but the Stars come in having won five of their last six, so they're hot as well.
Toffoli served as a healthy scratch against the Canucks on Wednesday but will play against Chicago on Saturday. Toffoli will skate on a line with Blake Lizotte and Ilya Kovalchuk and re-enters the lineup with five points (3G / 2A) in 12 games.

Gaudette will dress in an NHL game for the first time since October 12th but with Micheal Ferland out with a concussion, Gaudette will suit up in Anaheim. Gaudette has one assist in three games this season.
Toffoli has not registered a point in four straight games and was an ugly minus-4 during the Kings' loss in Chicago on Sunday. Toffoli rotated on the Kings' fourth line in Tuesday's practice, suggesting that he will come out of the lineup vs. the Canucks.
Price stopped 29 of 31 shots in the Canadiens victory over the Maple Leafs last Saturday. Price has won three of his last four and tonight he faces a Coyotes team that he is 11-1-0 against in his career. However, these are not your dad's Coyotes, they are 7-3-1 while averaging 3.00 goals for (t-17th) and 2.18 goals against (2nd) to start 2019-20. Price comes in at 2-0-1 with a .912 SV% on the road.
Gaudette has been a healthy scratch for the last five games so the Canucks are returning him to Utica to get some playing time. The last time the 23-year-old was in the AHL, he had 11 points (5G / 6A) in 14 games in 2018-19.
Price allowed two goals on 34 shots in the Canadiens win in St. Louis last Saturday. Keith Kinkaid started on Sunday, so Price comes into Thursday's game very well-rested. Price has won three of his last four starts (3-1-0) while posting a 2.02 GAA, .922 SV% and one shutout. San Jose comes into Thursday's game at 3-5-1 and still ranks in the bottom third of the NHL in goal-scoring (2.67 GF/gm).
Svechnikov has scored one goal with three assists (four points) in three games with the Griffins this season. He has been called-up once already but has not made his season debut with the Red Wings. With Adam Erne out, there's a hole in the Red Wings' middle-6 but it's unclear whether or not Svechnikov will fill it on Tuesday. He has four points (2G / 2A) in 16 career NHL games.
Price stopped all 17 shots that he faced in the Canadiens shutout win over the Wild on Thursday. It was about as easy of a shutout as you will see in the NHL and marked the first game this season that Price has allowed less than three goals. The veteran netminder has a tough afternoon matchup in St. Louis and Price comes in at 3-2-1 with a 2.79 GAA and .906 SV% in six starts.
Yurtaykin appeared in four of the Sharks' first seven games, failing to record a point in 13:00 ATOI. He's set to make his AHL debut on Saturday.
Price gave up three goals on 22 shots in the Canadiens loss to the Lightning on Tuesday. Through five starts, Price has allowed at least three goals in every game, totalling in a 3.33 GAA and .896 SV%. It’s not a good streak but a home matchup with the Wild is a good opportunity to end it. Minnesota is 1-5-0 and are averaging just 2.33 goals per game (t-26th).
Gaudette has appeared in the last three games, playing 11:30 ATOI with one assist, but is expected to be replaced by Tyler Motte on the fourth line on Tuesday.
