In their second game against one another in as many nights, the Montreal Canadiens defeated the Vancouver Canucks by a score 5-3 at the Bell Centre on Tuesday night. Josh Anderson and Tyler Toffoli each netted a pair of goals in the victory while Shea Weber picked up an assist in his 1000th regular-season game.
Both teams opted for their other goaltender in net to close out the back-to-back series, yet compared to yesterday’s game the scoring was slow to start. Montreal had an opportunity to get on the board early during a 48-second two-man advantage, but Thatcher Demko was up to the task for the Canucks.
