After taking a 7-2 stomping at the hands of the Ottawa Senators on Friday night, the Montreal Canadiens took to home ice against a different iteration of the same team.

Welcome to your Bottom Six Minutes for a significantly better effort than that 7-2 stomping as the Habs win 2-1 at home.
Alexander Romanov looked fantastic for a pre-season game. Though Jeff Petry certainly had his impact on the ice, the young Russian was arguably the best defender for the Tricolore.
