Status report
The Canadiens did not conduct a morning skate. ... Laine will miss his second straight game, but the forward could return at the Seattle Kraken on Wednesday; he was on the ice for skating and shooting drills Tuesday. ... Roy was recalled from Laval of the American Hockey League on Monday and forward Owen Beck was sent down. … Hughes will miss his fourth consecutive game; the defenseman skated with the Canucks in a non-contact jersey in his first time on the ice since facing the Kraken in a 6-3 loss March 1.
