In a highly anticipated matchup tonight, the Montreal Canadiens are seeking revenge against the Chicago Blackhawks' defensemen Jarred Tinordi, and the stakes are high.

Luke Richardson has confirmed that defenseman Jarred Tinordi will make his comeback after an extended absence due to concussion protocol.

Adding an extra layer of intensity to the game is the absence of former Blackhawks player Kirby Dach, who underwent surgery over a month ago following a massive hit from Blackhawks defenseman Jarred Tinordi. Tonight's game marks the first face-off between the teams since that incident.

With Tinordi returning to the ice, it's expected that he will have a target on his back. The Canadiens are eager to retaliate for the injury to Dach, setting the stage for a hard-fought and potentially rough contest.

Interestingly enough, the Blackhawks have moved up 6-foot-9 defensemen Louis Crevier to the second pairing alongside Tinordi for tonight's game, anticipating that backup may be needed.

Hockey fans, brace yourselves for an emotionally charged game as these two teams clash in a battle for redemption and revenge.
