Canadiens Struggle to Overcome Demons: A Close Encounter with the Devils
In a gripping match on Thursday night, the Montreal Canadiens suffered their second consecutive defeat, falling 4-3 in overtime to the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center. The game highlighted the competitive nature of both teams while exposing ongoing challenges for the Canadiens, casting doubt on their ability to sustain momentum this season.
A Rocky Start for the Canadiens
Before this game, the Canadiens had a strong start to the season with a 9-3-2 record. However, their recent performance showed vulnerabilities that could become problematic. Early in the match, the Canadiens conceded a goal just two minutes in. Cody Glass capitalized on a defensive mistake, scoring with a precise shot that gave goaltender Jakub Dobes little chance to respond.
This quick concession echoed their last game against the Philadelphia Flyers, where they also allowed an early goal. Despite the setback, the Canadiens reacted swiftly, equalizing soon after Glass’s goal. Noah Dobson's seemingly harmless shot deflected off Kirby Dach and went into the net, illustrating how luck sometimes plays a role in hockey outcomes.
"This game not only showcased the competitive spirit of both teams but also highlighted the Canadiens' ongoing struggles, raising questions about their ability to maintain momentum this season."
