The Montreal Canadiens won 5-4 in a shootout against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday night after falling behind 2-0 very early in the game.
It was already their third win in 18 games this season after falling behind by two goals. Last season, which saw them fall behind by two goals often, only saw them come back twice from two goals down in 82 games.
Of course it’s not ideal to be trailing in games, especially by multiple goals, but it will happen and the biggest difference between this year’s Canadiens and last year’s Canadiens is that they have confidence.
