Tyler Toffoli scored the game’s lone goal and goaltender Carey Price recorded his eighth career playoff shutout to give the visiting Montreal Canadiens a 1-0 victory over the Winnipeg Jets and a surprising 2-0 lead in their Stanley Cup playoff series.
Price made all 30 saves needed to earn his first shutout of this year’s playoffs.
“The guys did a great job in front; it was a pretty complete team effort tonight,” Price said. “We’re playing well on both sides of the puck. We’re just making smart decisions and backing each other up all over the ice.
