The Montreal Canadiens had to concede a 3-4 overtime defeat to the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday night (CEST).

Austrian ice hockey export David Reinbacher (21) is not in the lineup against the Sharks. On Sunday night, he made his season debut in the 4-3 overtime win against the Buffalo Sabres.

Marco Rossi is also not in action on Wednesday night. The 25-year-old is still out sick for the Vancouver Canucks, who had to concede a 3-6 defeat against the Carolina Hurricanes.

The Canadiens were temporarily up 3-1 against the Sharks after goals from Suzuki (17th), Slafkovsky (22nd), and Caufield (35th).

In Vancouver, the Canucks and Hurricanes engaged in a close match. It wasn't until the final period that the visitors pulled away to 6-3 thanks to goals from Deslauriers (45th), Ehlers (51st), and Stankoven (58th/EN).
