With nine players listed on the injury reserve, the Canadiens stumble in Ottawa after taking an exciting 3-2 overtime win in Buffalo Wednesday night, a win that cost them yet another body with Mark Barberio the victim this time around. The Habs have 254 man-games lost to injury, which ranks them sixth in the NHL behind five other non-playoff teams.
With eleven games left in the season, the quest for the playoffs is 0.1 percent away from being lost in mathematical terms. It's all but over. In the meantime, there's a chance to watch Alex Galchenyuk continue to tear it up and add to his point total since February 24th where he has had 14 points in 11 games.
