What a way to kick off the kick off the new season. It only took three minutes (92 seconds) for the Montreal Canadiens to save the world and win the game sending the Bell Centre into a flurry of screams and cheers.
Considering last year’s preseason stretch wasn’t as favourable as the Habs would’ve liked, it was great to see the new players (young and old) make an impact, and older players (you may have to wrinkle your nose at this one) show tremendous growth.
I know what you’re thinking, “Calm down, it’s only the preseason,” and you’d be right to have that in your head.
