I have to be honest with you, I didn't actually think the Canadiens were going to pull off a win like that, or a win at all. I guess that's what I get for being negative.
I should start being negative more often.
The Canadiens played an solid game, and finally got that first win for Cunneyworth, who shook up the lines nicely. A convincing win it was, and a much needed one. Last night was a real team effort, with contributions from 7 players, including slumping Cammalleri, returning Subban and first liner Eller.
Although I can go on for hours, to sum it up briefly: Cammy woke up, Pleky played a smart game, Eller was on the edge of his toes, P.K got his confidence back, Price was the man, and Gorges was our main man playing for almost half the game. It was refreshing to see the Habs bounce back after they gave up an early goal at 1:42 of the first.
Now hopefully, this wasn't just a one win wonder for our Canadiens, and they can keep the momentum going. They will end the 2011 year with their traditional New Years' trip to Florida, playing the Lightning on Thursday and the Panthers on the last day of the year, where a hopeful win can be achieved, and can keep us on the edge of our couches for the 2012 year.
Also, while you take the time to indulge in the taste of victory, you can watch our young guns suit up for Team Canada as they take on the Czech Republic tonight at 8:00, both teams coming off of convincing victories.
What about that Gallagher, eh?
Pretty promising forward we got to see, I'm excited to see what that kid is going to do within the coming seasons.
