Pre-game Notes and Quotes
  • On Monday, Marc Bergevin announced that Mikhail Sergachev has been returned to the Windsor Spitfires of the OHL.
  • Shea Weber received two league honours as he was named the NHL’s third star of the week, and second star for the month of October.
  • The Canadiens announced that Shea Weber was the winner of the Molson Cup for October.
  • Andrew Shaw on the Canucks, “They can be a very dangerous team. They can make plays. They can score goals. We’ve got to be prepared for that. In the NHL, you can’t take any team lightly. They’re all professionals. They’re all capable of scoring goals. We’ve got to expect a hard-working Canucks team.”
