The Montreal Canadiens (48-23-10) will face the Philadelphia Flyers (42-27-12) on Tuesday, with the puck drop scheduled for 7 pm ET.
It will be the final game of the regular season for both teams, and seeing as the Habs and Flyers have already qualified for the playoffs, there may be some regulars missing from the lineups.

Josh Anderson , Mike Matheson , and Phillip Danault could end up watching the game as healthy scratches, in a bid to give them a little rest before springtime hockey begins. As for Kaiden Guhle , he did not practice, but head coach Martin St-Louis said he will be available for Tuesday's game.
We do know that netminder Jakub Dobes will get the start for the Canadiens, giving the rookie netminder an opportunity to secure his 30th victory. As it stands, Dobes has a 29-9-4 record, including a 2.75 goals against average, and a .903 save percentage.
It will also be the 43rd game in which Dobes will appear, which means he's featured in over half of Montreal's match ups, quite a feather in his cap when we realize the team has had three different netminders in place this season.
