MONTREAL -- The Detroit Red Wings are looking to accomplish something no other team has this season -- beat the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre.The Canadiens improved to 9-0-0 at home this season following arguably their best effort of the season in a 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings. Montreal limited the Kings to just 24 shots -- the second time this season it held an opponent to fewer than 28 shots on goal and the first time in six games it held to fewer than 35.Those controlled exits today were huge, Canadiens captain Max Pacioretty said after the win of what led his teams success. It led to more poise through the neutral zone, more poise in the offensive zone, and I think what it really led to is that possession kept the puck out of our end and allowed us to create some offense.Detroit, meanwhile, is coming off a 3-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks, aided greatly by another strong outing from goaltender Jimmy Howard. The Red Wings jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period but Howard had to be sharp, facing 37 shots on the night -- the fourth time in seven games hes made at least 30 saves.Its been a turnaround of late for the veteran netminder, who started the season as Petr Mrazeks back-up. Howards gotten the nod from coach Jeff Blashill in three straight and is expected to do the same against Montreal.Jimmy looked solid again. He doesnt give up and he isnt spitting out rebounds, Blashill told reporters after the game. Hes controlling the rebounds and the puck is going to him.Economical is a good word, he added. Hes been real economical in his movement, and when goalies are playing well, they under-move, they dont over-move.There will be one definite lineup change for Detroit on Saturday. Right winger Anthony Mantha was called up on Friday to replace Andreas Athanasiou, who suffered a knee sprain against Vancouver and will miss one to two weeks.Mantha has enjoyed a strong season in the AHL to date, recording eight goals and two assists in 10 games.Thats how I had to start the year, the 22-year-old told reporters in Detroit after practice on Friday. I talked to (coach Jeff Blashill) and (general manager) Kenny (Holland) when I left here and they wanted me to dominate in the American League. I think thats what Im showing right now by the start I had, and I just need to bring that up here.Mantha appeared in 10 games with the Red Wings last season, picking up two goals and an assist. He scored both goals against Montreal.The Canadiens earned a day off on Friday and will host Detroit before flying off to Chicago for a tilt with the Blackhawks on Sunday. Coach Michel Therrien is often reluctant to change a winning lineup and, given how well his team played against Los Angeles, will probably keep his 20-man group intact.That group includes a balanced attack, which saw three of its four forward lines contribute to the win. Two of those goals -- including the empty-netter -- came from Montreals top line, featuring center Alex Galchenyuk between Alexander Radulov and speedy winger Paul Byron.The trio has been key in the Canadiens two most recent wins, combining for nine points. Radulov has especially impressed and, of his nine assists on the season, eight have been primary.Hes a relentless worker out there, Byron said of his Radulov. He always puts himself in smart positions to protect the puck, using his body. Hes such a strong guy on the puck, you see hes always chasing, digging, and coming out of those puck battles.

SAN DIEGO -- Edwin Jackson processed the message, then put it into effect.Jackson struck out 11 in seven scoreless innings to outpitch former Padres ace Drew Pomeranz, leading San Diego over the Boston Red Sox 2-1 Monday.Jackson (4-5) gave up four hits and ended his three-start losing streak.We kind of talked in between starts and we felt he just wasnt finishing up front with a ton of conviction, Padres manager Andy Green said. From the first pitch today you can see him finishing aggressively.That made sense to Jackson.I had to come out today and force the issue against a great-hitting team, he said. They can put a lot of points on the board. You just have to have belief in what you do.Adam Rosales hit a two-run homer off Pomeranz.It helped seeing him as a teammate, Rosales said. I learned you have to lay off the curve and the cutter.Said Pomeranz: I was having trouble locating my pitches and he took advantage of one.Pomeranz (2-4 for Boston) was an All-Star for the Padres this season and 8-7 in the NL before being traded to the Red Sox in mid-July.I think Drew gave us what we kind of anticipated, (105) pitches and six quality innings of work, Red Sox manager John Farrell said.Brandon Maurer worked the ninth for his eighth save in 13 chances. He gave up a one-out single to Hanley Ramirez, then struck out Jackie Bradley Jr. and got pinch hitter David Ortiz on a flyball.Rosales hit his career-high ninth homer of the season in the fourth, and the San Diego pitchers made it stand up.One pitch, its a different game, Rosales said. But I didnt think it was goingg out.ddddddddddddPomeranz gave up two runs and six hits in 5 2/3 innings. He struck out five with a walk.Chris Youngs pinch-hit homer off reliever Brad Hand to open the eighth cut the Padres lead to 2-1.Aaron Hill followed with a pinch-hit double but was stranded at third when Hand struck out Brock Holt and Xander Bogaerts.We got a couple of opportunities with really good hitters at the plate, Farrell said. But unfortunately we didnt execute to tie the game up.Hanley Ramirez had three hits for Boston.Bostons best chance against Jackson came in the seventh. But with two on and none out, he got Bradley to ground into a double play and fanned Yoan Moncada on a full-count offspeed pitch.(Catcher) Derek (Norris) and myself were able to get in a great groove, Jackson said. Today was one of those games.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: RHP Koji Uehara (strained pectoral muscle) was activated off the disabled list. He will be available on Tuesday, Farrell said.Padres: CF Jon Jay (right forearm) will be added to the roster on Tuesday after playing in three minor league games. Jay missed 66 games.UP NEXTRed Sox: RHP Clay Buchholz (5-10, 5.20) gets the nod for the middle game of the three-game series. In his last three starts, he is 1-0 and has allowed just one run in two of them.Padres: RHP Paul Clemens (2-4, 4.93) has set a career high with nine starts but his last one was rocky when he lasted by three innings, charged with two runs and four hits.
