The Montreal Canadiens continued their dominance of the Boston Bruins this season with a 3-2 victory Saturday night at the Bell Centre. The win gave the Canadiens their 5th in 6 tries against the Bruins after a disastrous record against them last year. Due to other commitments, I was only able to catch the 1st period of the game, which saw the Habs jump out to a 2-0 lead. Sergei Kostitsyn scored a pair of goals for the Canadiens, while Andrei Markov added a single. Kostitsyn, Markov and Dominic Moore all had 2 point nights. Jaroslav Halak got the call in goal again and made 21 saves for his 5th straight victory. Tuukka Rask took the loss, making 24 saves. The Canadiens power play went 1 for 3 on the night, while the penalty kill was perfect in 3 chances.
Seeing how I didn't get to watch the whole game, my Silver Wolf Whiskey Hab of the Game will be based on stats. Sergei Kostitsyn gets the title tonight, scoring a pair of goals including the game winner. Consideration also given to Markov and Moore. Next up for the Canadiens, another important match up, this time against the New York Rangers.
