The Montreal Canadiens and Winnipeg Jets are back in action tonight after the two teams met on Thursday.

Montreal will look to snap a two game losing skid, while Winnipeg is looking for their third win in a row.

The Jets are holding on to third place in the North Division with 51 points, trailed by the Canadiens who are eight points back with three games in hand. The Habs will need to make a push sooner rather than later in order to catch the Jets in the standings before the end of the season.

This will be the second of a six game homestand for Montreal, who are 9-4-7 on home ice this season. Winnipeg holds a record of 13-7-1 on the road.

The Canadiens will remained short staffed without the likes of Brendan Gallagher or Carey Price, while the Jets will be without their captain Blake Wheeler, who is out indefinitely with a concussion.

Here are the 3 Keys To Victory versus Winnipeg.
