What is there left to say about the Montreal Canadiens that hasn't already been said about the Titanic?
The Habs completed a short three-game road trip in Denver, losing to the Avalanche 3-2 after two previous disturbing losses against the Buffalo Sabres and the Arizona Coyotes.
The first period was a very fast-paced affair with very few whistles, and Montreal actually ended up looking very good through the first 20 minutes of play. The first 10 minutes were capped off by Andrei Markov scoring his fourth goal of the season on a beautiful controlled zone entry, as the line of Alex Galchenyuk, Tomas Plekanec, and Brendan Gallagher drove hard into the zone.
