The Montreal Canadiens recalled goaltender Dustin Tokarski and forward Christian Thomas from the AHL's St. John's IceCaps on Thursday.
The moves coincide with injuries sustained by Carey Price and Alexander Semin in Wednesday's victory over the New York Rangers.
Thomas had one goal in 18 games with the Canadiens last season.
Tokarski is 9-9-5 with a 2.85 GAA and .906 save percentage in 28 career NHL games. He's expected to back up Mike Condon against the New Jersey Devils on Friday.
