Who knew that in a game where there was only a total of 21 shots in the first two periods by both teams, the third period would bring a total of 4 games, three of which were scored by the Montreal Canadiens, and two of those were within a period of 1:06.
I feel comfortable in saying that we needed this win. It was absolutely detrimental to not only the team but to Price as well, that we got this on.
Goals by the Canadiens in this one came from Mike Cammalleri, Glen Metropolit, Marc Andre Bergeron, and Brian Gionta with an empty netter.
Although he didn’t score, Tomas Plekanec was an absolute MONSTER and if this game was on TSN you can be guaranteed that he would have been McGuire’s. Pleky assisted on the first three of the Canadiens goals’ and finished this one with 17 minutes of ice time. I can see Plekanec moving up to the first line very very soon with the way that he has been playing as of late.
Pricey had a decent game saving 18-20 shots which gave him a .900 save percentage.
On an unfortunate note, it looks like Spacek may have been injured in this one after leaving the game and not returning. Hopefully he’ll be alright because we can’t keep losing defenseman.
And for your viewing leisure, Jay Leach vs Paul Bissonnette.
