Just saw that Calgary goal-well executed especially since Anaheim seemed to open the period with more jump.
tampa bay 1 montreal 0 - third period
rangers 1 washington 1, end of 2nd period.
And then it was 1, 1 for Montreal and T.B. until the last second of the third period!
Caps > Rangers 2-1
Broadway Blues look to be in big trouble. They just cannot handle the physicality of teams like the Caps as small lineups usually get worn done by season's end.
Caps physicality forces Blues to take weak shots and this eases the game for the goalie. Rangers did not really take too many good shots except for that top shelf one that got in the net.
there's no question that he got the job done - ditto for all the Caps players as they are obviously a well coached team
I wonder if Price isn't starting to tire!
Montreal did just about everything right tonight, most importantly they forced Game 5 at home after coming back with a vengeance while facing elimination. They took care of Bishop then continued to score on his replacement. Super Max scored another short-handed goal to add to his total in the play-offs.
In coming back to win this game after being down 3 - zip to Tampa Bay in the series, the Habs also made history having never been able to do so prior to this win. Whether or not they go on to take the series they will most certainly be hailed as heroes when they next meet the Bolts in the Bell Centre on Saturday - as well they should.
GO, HABS, GO! :canada:
I guess when they want to score they can, eh?
looks like montreal have a break in this playoffs, as callahan had emergency appendectomy, and is finished
for the playoffs, for tampa. he is a key player, they need him badly.
Sure didn't seem to slow them down one bit, talloola - especially with Steven getting his game back. The Habs were all but pitiful tonight and TB was spot on for most of the night. I imagine this was the team you were wondering about in one of your prior posts - no worries tonight and now they have sealed the deal. Kudos to the Bolts - they played the better game and deserve the win. And that empty-netter just put paid to any outside chance for Montreal.
Now I only have the Rangers to cheer for...............and of course of Canadian Men at the World's.
