Flynn (lower body) will return to action Saturday against the Lightning.
Analysis:
Flynn has been out since Feb. 12 with a lower-body injury, but is apparently feeling well enough to return to the Canadiens' lineup just in time for the final game of the regular season. The 27-year-old forward is expected to slot into a bottom-six role Saturday against Tampa Bay, skating alongside Torrey Mitchell and Paul Byron on Montreal's fourth line.
