Game 3 did not go according to the Montreal Canadiens‘ plan. For the first two games of the series against the Ottawa Senators, they went into the first intermission down by 1 goal. That was right on track Sunday night in Game 3. However, unlike the first two games, the second period was scoreless, and for 14 minutes of the third, the Habs looked like they might actually lose the game.
And then came Dale Weise, hero of last year’s Game 1 in Tampa Bay, coming down the ice and scoring the equalizer against Ottawa, rejuvenating Habs fans everywhere.
