The Montreal Canadiens defeated the Buffalo Sabres last night after a difficult start to their night. They were outshot 9-0 early on but rebounded to take over the contest and won the game 3-1 after falling behind 1-0. Two young players were watching that game from the press box which caused some frustration among Habs fans.
Cale Fleury and Jesperi Kotkaniemi were healthy scratches, watching from high above the ice as their teammates celebrated a victory on the road in Buffalo. With the team far behind in the playoff race, many fans wanted to see the young players on the ice.
