Weise (maintenance) did not take part in Sunday's morning skate, Dave Stubbs of the Montreal Gazette reports.

Analysis:

Per coach Michel Therrien, Weise -- whose absence Sunday morning was characterized by the team as a therapy day -- should be available for Sunday night's game against Ottawa, but such an outcome may not be solidified until pre-game warmups. Weise has scored two goals through the first five games of the Habs' series against Ottawa, with both of his tallies having come in Game 3's overtime win.
