TICKETS: Devils vs. Canadiens 🎟️
3. The Devils will likewise make their preseason debut on Monday, having not been among the 23 teams in action over the weekend, aside from a pair of team scrimmages. New Jersey will notably be sending a split squad to Montreal, as the visitors will host a simultaneous home game against the Flyers at the Prudential Center at 7:00 p.m.. The Devils have a trio of former Canadiens at camp in Tyler Toffoli, Chris Tierney, and Keith Kinkaid.
4. In addition to the Habs newcomers who may hit the ice, a new 50/50 format will also make its Bell Centre debut on Monday. New this preseason, an early bird prize will be up for grabs at each game – home or away – leading up to the home opener against the Chicago Blackhawks on Oct. 14. One prize will be drawn per game, and one 50/50 ticket will be eligible for all remaining draws until Oct. 14 at the time of purchase. Buy early for the most chances to take home a prize! Best of all, the jackpot will not be split at each preseason game, being pooled instead into a mega jackpot on Oct. 14 that will be drawn among all tickets purchased.

5. Game time is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. at the Bell Centre, and tickets for the contest can be purchased here. On TV, full coverage will be available in French on RDS.
