We’ve seen this movie before. The Montreal Canadiens trailed the Carolina Hurricanes 2-0 after the first 20 minutes of a mid-week game at the Bell Centre, and it looked like they were on their way to another hapless loss.
That’s not what happened. The Canadiens fought back to tie the game three times before ultimately falling 6-5 at the Bell Centre on Thursday night.
It was not a great start for Montreal. Just 1:34 into the game Jakub Jerabek turned the puck over in the corner, and Jordie Benn just watched as Teuvo Teravainen scored his first of two of the game.
