(SportsNetwork.com) - The Montreal Canadiens will try to record their longest winning streak in a month when they welcome the sliding Carolina Hurricanes for Tuesdays clash at the Bell Centre. Montreal has won its last two games to record its first set of consecutive wins since beating St. Louis and Boston on Nov. 20 and 22, respectively. The Canadiens havent won three in a row since a season-high six-game tear from Nov. 5-16. The Habs should be well rested for tonight, having been idle since routing the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings on Friday night. The Canadiens posted a 6-2 victory over the visiting Kings to go 2-0 at the start of a five-game homestand. Montreal slammed the Kings on the scoreboard, but were outshot by a wide 46-20 margin in the game. Habs goaltender Carey Price, who will start again tonight, stopped 44 shots to lead his club to victory. Jiri Sekac provided two goals for Montreal, while P.K. Subban notched a goal and two assists. Andrei Markov and David Desharnais added a goal and a helper to the winning cause. Price is 10-5-2 with a 2.35 goals against average in 17 career games against the Hurricanes, a team that enters Tuesday having lost five straight in regulation. That marks Carolinas longest stretch of regulation losses this season, and its the clubs second-worst overall skid of the campaign behind the season-opening 0-6-2 stretch. Tonights matchup figures to offer little chance at relief, as the Hurricanes have lost five of six and 10 of their last 14 games against Montreal. The Canes have dropped three in a row and six of seven at the Bell Centre. Carolina has managed to score only once in each of its setbacks during this 0-5 stretch, getting outscored by a combined 14-5 margin along the way. The most lopsided loss of the skid came the last time out, as the Canes were pounded 5-1 in Philadelphia on Saturday. The Hurricanes allowed the Flyers to take a 1-0 lead just 53 seconds into the game and Philly would build that lead to 5-1 by the middle part of the second period. Anton Khudobin allowed all five goals on just 23 shots, while Eric Staal scored Carolinas lone goal at 2:06 of the second period. Weve got to compete, be better defensively, manage the puck, move the puck better and that will give us a better chance, Carolina head coach Bill Peters said. The Hurricanes, who fell to 3-11-2 as the guest, will try to salvage the finale of a three-game road trip tonight. Carolina has lost five of its last six away games. Cam Ward is expected to return to his starting role between the pipes for Carolina tonight. The veteran is 15-8-3 with a 2.75 GAA in 26 career outings against the Habs. Carolina forward Jiri Tlusty missed Saturdays test with an upper-body injury and he is questionable for tonight. Johnny Bower Jersey .
