I watched up to the 2nd period last night (I recorded it and then watched it after the kids went to bed) but I fell asleep so I watched the last ten minutes of 3rd period this morning. Montreal was playing much like they did last year in the playoffs, the other team was carrying the play for much of the game, but they play a strong defensive game, trusting their goalie and patiently waiting for the other team to make an error and pounce on it (like Lucic trying to carry it past Gomez).
Thomas didn't look great on the 2nd goal, I'm thinking he's going to bounce back though in the 2nd game.
Yeah, like a reporter told on a blog: The Canadian did a miracle last year, it is the only team to have won two rounds by being overmatched and beaten during 14 games in a row, thansk to Halak

Will Price be able to give a better performance? We will see. But it is a good start for them. And Gomez and Gionta seems to have awaken. They'll need to continue. Plekanec, Camalleri and Kostitsyn will need to follow on the offensive.
