The Montreal Canadiens may have run over the Ottawa Senators on the Saturday night scoreboard, but that game could have been much closer. The Habs enjoyed an excellent conversion rate on their scoring chances, but the Senators were the busier team in terms of output. One key player made sure that the shot count didn’t matter, however.
Jake Allen was the difference maker in this one, stopping 29 of 30 shots including some highlight reel stops.
The fact that this performance comes two days before the deadline really makes me wonder if Allen could be on the move.
