Evans (hand) is expected to be a game-time decision for Tuesday's home clash against the Wild, per Eric Engels of Sportsnet.
Evans sustained his hand injury during Monday's practice. If the 30-year-old winger can't go, the Canadiens announced that Florian Xhekaj will dress for warm-ups and take Evans' place in the lineup. Prior to suffering the hand injury, Evans posted two goals, six points, a plus-4 rating, 13 shots on net, 14 hits and 10 blocked shots across 17 games this season.
