Last night was Star Wars night in Pittsburgh, and I had a very bad feeling about it.
This season it seems like us Montreal Canadiens fans are made to suffer, it’s our lot in life. Don’t get me wrong, I wish I could wish away these feelings but this team is going down a path I cannot follow.
Despite Montreal being relatively even in both Corsi-for percentage (50.5%) and expected-goals-for percentage (49.1%) it seems that Montreal underestimated (Pittsburgh's) power. Other than a few distinct flashes it never felt that Montreal took much control.
