Montreal Canadiens: The good news and bad news from last night’s game

Another game and another loss for the Montreal Canadiens. At this point, it’s really starting to look like Claude Julien, and some of the players are running out of things to say in the post-game scrums. Even though the Habs are trending downwards to tie their franchise-high in regulation losses in the era of 82-game seasons back in 2001 (40), there are some good things to take away from it. In particular, last night it’s game.

For example, and I say this with the least amount of sarcasm possible, the Habs broke their goalless streak. It took 166:03 of playing time but Jonathan Drouin got his 12th of the season in the final minutes of the game to break the Pittsburgh Penguins lead.
