The Jets take on the Montreal Canadiens this afternoon, at 1 o’clock CT. This will be the first game for the Canadiens since the surprise firing of Michel Therrien and subsequent hiring of Claude Julien.
This is another tough game against a good team, after a physical, intense matchup against the Penguins on Thursday. If the Jets play as well as they did on Thursday, though, they might actually win a game. You can catch this one on CBC.

- Think the Canadiens are gonna be motivated to impress their new coach? And that they might be well rested at home, after a week off?
