Thursday night was nothing but fun for the Carolina Hurricanes as they went into Montreal and claimed a 4-1 win against the Canadiens.
The game had it all, namely some beautiful goals, tremendous goaltending and juicy drama.
As expected, the fans in Montreal rained boos down on Jesperi Kotkaniemi from his first shift of the game. Down on the ice, both teams were noticeably physical in the opening moments.
A slew of penalties was rattled off around the three-minute mark, starting with a Tony DeAngelo slashing penalty as he tried to stop Josh Anderson’s breakaway try.
