The Montreal Canadiens swap one winger for another ahead of Wednesday night’s game against the Seattle Kraken.

Star forward Patrik Laine will return to the line-up after missing two games with illness, while depth winger Joel Armia will not play due to an upper body injury.

The 31-year-old is considered day-to-day.

Laine missed the first few months of the regular season after suffering a knee injury in a pre-season contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Since returning to play, he has 14 goals and 24 points in 34 games.

The Canadiens are coming off a 4-2 rout of the Vancouver Canucks, and will play the final game of their West Coast road trip on Wednesday against the Kraken.
