The Canadiens’ longest streak of the season seems like a century ago at this point. Back in the ancient days of October, 2016, the Canadiens won their eight game in a row. After that game, the Canadiens would go on a run of 22-21-7 before Claude Julien was brought on board to re-calibrate this team to the level they were playing at during those October days so long ago.
Tonight, the Canadiens will be going for their seventh win in a row, which, will be a much-needed two points with the Atlantic Division lead being contested with hotly with the Ottawa Senators, who are four points back and having two games at hand.
