Canadiens make Lars Eller healthy scratch Thursday

Montreal Canadiens forward Lars Eller will sit out Thursday's game against the Vancouver Canucks, according to his head coach.

Eller was benched against the Calgary Flames on Tuesday. He has two points (one goal and one assist) in 10 games this season.

Brandon Prust will take his spot as the third-line center with Michael Bournival set to play his first game of the season.
