The Noah Juulsen-Victor Mete swap makes sense for the Montreal Canadiens

There were a few things to expect after the final buzzer went off for the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre. The fans would express their frustrations, the players would express their frustrations, and Claude Julien would express his frustrations.

All three came to be, but there was something else some thought could happen: a change. The Habs were on the wrong end of several turnovers all over the ice. Although it was a team-scale collapse in defensive awareness and reliability, the blueline took a lot of the blame.

Perhaps this would be the final straw for veteran David Schlemko who had an interesting role in Boston’s fourth goal of the game.
