Locked on Wild PREGAME: Wild Look for Season Sweep of Montreal Tonight!

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we get a bit of injury clarity on Jared Spurgeon and Mats Zuccarello. We discuss the differences between LTIR and standard Injured Reserve in Zuccarello's case and how much time he could miss. We discuss Spurgeon's aim for Saturday's game, and how the D pairings could look when he returns. We move to tonight's game against Montreal and look at how the Canadiens have done recently as well as who to watch from a Canadiens perspective. We finish with 3 Keys to a win tonight, which include:

Avoid a trap game! Starting slow could lead to having to play catch up against a Montreal team that has only 6 regulation wins so far this year.
Power Play needs to take advantage of a beatable Canadiens PK
Can the bottom six get the best of Montreal's bottom six tonight?

Make sure to join us after the game for another Locked on Wild POSTCAST breaking down all of the action!
