To borrow a segment from Steve Dangle, “New York Islanders fans, If I were you.” Your team gave up nine goals in two games without scoring a single one. Stings but there’s time to patch things up, at the same time, the Montreal Canadiens needed a game like this where they went back to the things that gave them success. Additionally, Jonathan Drouin needed a game like this as his production was on threat level ice cold.
The Habs came energized right out of the gate as every line was generating chances. There were moments where the Islanders began to spend more and more time in the offensive zone forcing Carey Price to look really sharp at times.
