Lehner will protect the net Wednesday against the Canadiens, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.

Analysis:

Lehner allowed three goals on 34 shots in a loss to the Canadiens last time out, but will look to turn things around Wednesday in a rematch between the two clubs. He will be at home in Buffalo this time around, but his splits actually favor road starts. It may be best to avoid using him in both season-long and daily contests, given his recent struggles.
