FYI:
These two teams skated to a 3-3 tie at Bell Centre on October 22, and Montreal is 9-1-2 in the last 12 meetings overall. The current home-and-home will conclude Wednesday at the Igloo.
The Pittsburgh Penguins will try and put the brakes on a five-game winless streak tonight when they travel to Montreal and battle the Canadiens in the opener of a home-and home set at the Bell Centre.
However, ending the skid will not be easy for the Penguins, who are winless in their last six (0-5-1) against the Habs and have not won in Montreal since a 5-3 triumph on January 31, 1999, a span of seven games (0-5-2).
