Rating The Tank: Samuel says Non-tembeault Edition
Photo by Justin Berl/ Bad night for the tank, great night for the vibes. After getting mercilessly pummelled by the Colorado Avalanche on Monday night, the Montreal Canadiens ended their seven-game losing skid on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. It was a fun game, one the Habs had no business in winning, but that is sometimes how the cookie crumbles. The Good SIX GOALS! There were six different goal-scorers on the night, including some unexpected faces like Joel Edmundson and Anthony Richard. It was a dynamic, opportunistic showing from the Canadiens’ offence...

[Highlight] Joel Edmundson doubles Montreal’s lead

Like a baby bird hopping around with its beak open waiting for a parent to stuff in a grub, Edmundson waits for a short feed from Johnny Kovacevic to score Montreal’s fourth goal of the opening period.

TSM: Holding their own
Photo by Harry How/ The Habs were in it until the final horn versus one of the NHL’s best. Pre-game Joel Edmundson is playing. Will he be on the ice for more than 10 minutes? We will see. It’s an 11-7 alignment, with Chris Tierney sitting this one out. First period It’s an early power play for Montreal, thanks to Jesse Ylönen’s face. A set play that calls for something other than a one-time shot from Mike Hoffman. Are you seeing his versatility, league GMs? Gurianov makes a play to the side of the net, but the whistle is blown because the net comes off,...
