The Montreal Canadiens has been struggling. They are 2-6-2 in their last 10, and the last game against Boston didn't go so well, what with Phillip Danault taking a shot to the head and all. This time, with Jonathan Drouin on the wing, and in Claude Julien's first game back in Boston, they hoped for a better outcome.
It certainly began well, when Jakub Jerabek banked a puck off Zdeno Chara and past Tuukka Rask less than a minute in for the first of the game, and his first of the season.
