Rating The Tank: The Purposely Short-handed Edition

After a comical contest against the Florida Panthers on Thursday, the Canadiens rolled into Tampa Bay to finish up a road trip. It was a highly competitive affair, even with Martin St-Louis leaving Jonathan Drouin on the bench as a punishment for missing a team meeting earlier in the week.

The Good

Not to sound like the world’s most annoying broken record, but they lost! In regulation! By a respectable margin!

In truth, this was a fun game, with three different goal-scorers for the Habs and Nick Suzuki collecting a pair of assists. Of note was a pair of wicked snipes from Denis Gurianov and Jesse Ylönen, each from the left circle.
