Andrei Markov and Mathieu Schneider Out for Tonight's Game

Bad news for the Habs as Andrei Markov and Mathieu Schneider are out of the line up for tonight's game. Andrei got hit from behind by Grabovski during last game and Mathieu has a upper body injury. Two big losses for the Habs as they undergo the last week of the season without their top powerplay defensemen. They will be replaced for tonight's game by Ryan O'Byrne and Doug Janik who was just recalled from Hamilton. Really bad news at this time of the seaons as the Habs are just 3 points away from making the playoffs.

Update : According to RDS, the two injuries are more serious than we thought, Mathieu Schneider's season is apparently over and needs to undergo surgery to the upper body. As for Markov he will be out for 3 weeks because of a knee injury.
