Jubilation enveloped the streets of Montreal. While only a limited amount of fans inside the Bell Centre could cheer the team on, a sea of Habs faithful outside reveled with joy.
Thanks to Josh Anderson’s overtime game-winning goal the season continues. The Montreal Canadiens beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-2 on Monday, as they avoided a sweep in the Stanley Cup Final.
Shortly after the Canadiens killed a four-minute penalty handed to captain Shea Weber with 61 seconds remaining in regulation, Anderson created a rush up ice by stealing the puck in his own zone and then pounced on a loose puck for his second goal of the game at 3:57 of overtime.
