Since this was the last game of 2016, we will focus on last night’s game, but also on the year 2016 as a whole for the Canadiens organization.
1. This may be who Paul Byron is
When it comes to Paul Byron, we always wait for the other shoe to drop. We always ask when will he stop scoring. When will the scoring chances stop coming? Well, at a certain point we may just have to stop doing that. Byron scored his 12th goal last night, a new career high.
Now, the chances may be going in at a higher rate than we should expect going forward, but I don’t see anything to suggest that the chances will stop coming.
