While teams around the league faced off last evening in the first round of preseason contests, the Bruins and Canadiens take center ice in Monday night hockey.

An off day for Group A at the Bruins practice facility in Wilmington, MA, Group B hit the ice for about an hour before making the trek across the border for the game this evening.

Newest off-season addition Jarome Iginla showcased his excitement to get the season going and to experience the rivalry firsthand.

A name that many fans have seen adorning the back of a Canadiens jersey is Subban, but tonight it will also grace the jersey of young Bruins’ goaltender Malcom Subban, younger brother of Habs P.K. Subban. Hitting the NHL pipes for the first time in his career, Subban will play half of the preseason contest, while Chad Johnson will take up goal for the other.
