MONTREAL -- The Montreal Canadiens own the NHLs best record, but they arent playing at peak performance ahead of battle with the long-time rival Boston Bruins on Tuesday at the Bell Centre.The Canadiens (10-1-1) won the teams first meeting on Oct. 22 in Boston, in the middle of their 9-0-1 run to start the season.Recently, however, Montreals play started to tail off. In addition to allowing 14 goals in the past two games -- a 10-0 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Friday and a 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday -- the Habs are also seeing their shots against rising considerably.Montreal has allowed at least 35 shots on goal in four straight -- including at least 40 in two of those games -- and more than 30 in each of the past five games.Despite the high volume of rubber his goaltenders are facing, Canadiens coach Michel Therrien isnt overly concerned.I remember last year, there was a stretch in December where we were outshooting our opponents 40, 42 to 20, 19, 17, and we were losing 3-(1) or 4-1, Therrien said. There was panic across the province. That year, we had a good start. Lately, weve been giving up more shots, but these are things that will correct themselves. Am I worried? No.Therrien acknowledged the team does have things to work on. And while he didnt specify, discipline and the penalty kill are certainly areas Montreal would like to get back on track. Penalized five times in each of the last three games, the Canadiens saw their penalty kill take a hit in their past two outings, allowing four power-play goals against the Blue Jackets and another two to Philadelphia.That potentially is good news for the Bruins, who finally got their power play clicking in their 4-0 win over the Sabres on Monday. Boston (7-5-0) went 3-for-8 on the man advantage against Buffalo; the Bruins were 3-for-38 heading into that contest and had allowed as many short-handed goals as they had scored power-play goals. One of those short-handed tallies came in the previous meeting against Montreal.A little practice (in the morning skate) and obviously some pride in making sure that they were the difference-makers instead of ending up on the negative side, Bruins coach Claude Julien said of his power-play units following the win.The Bruins also are keeping opposing goaltenders busy of late. While averaging 27.5 shots on goal per game overall, Boston has picked it up recently, surpassing the 30-shot mark in four of its past five games.Julien wouldnt confirm who his starting goalie would be against the Canadiens. On Monday, Tuukka Rask started his fifth straight game since returning from injury, and he made 32 saves to blank the Sabres. Rask, who was out when Montreal played at Boston, is 5-15-3 with a 2.69 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage lifetime against the Canadiens.Its one of those games I dont think any player really wants to miss because its a big rivalry and theyre a great team, the netminder said when asked if he would play Tuesday, adding that the decision isnt up to him. Definitely dont want to miss that, but well see.If not Rask, rookie goaltender Zane McIntyre would be eyeing his first career win in his second NHL start. NBA Jerseys China .

According to a report in the Denver Post, Avalanche executive vice-president Joe Sakic said the team will pass on Jones with the first-overall pick. "If we do pick first, were leaning more toward one of those three forwards,"Sakic told the Denver Post. The three forwards he was referring to were Halifax Mooseheads teammates Nathan MacKinnon and Jonathan Drouin, and Finnish centrre Aleksander Barkov.dddddddddddd "We feel those three forwards are just too good to pass up," Sakic continued. The thought was that Colorado would take Jones to help fill their need on the blue line, especially considering they are already strong at centre.
