St. Louis pushes all the right buttons for Canadiens in bounce-back win over Jets
St. Louis ended up changing everything — and to great effect, even if the Canadiens only squeaked away with a 3-2 shootout win over the Winnipeg Jets.

The verse that got us through the worst time of our life:
And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you (1 Peter 5:10).
Our favorite word in there: “himself.”

Canadiens' self-correction after awful start in Utah a sign of progress
The Canadiens needed a response and found one immediately. The Canadiens put an ugly first period in the rear-view mirror and showed why they're right in the thick of the playoff race.

Sure, they’ve played 2 more gms than NYR, but that’s not the point. 5 of next 8 at home 6 of those vs. non-playoff teams; this is their chance to get back in the mix. They won’t if they lie to themselves about Thursday’s win.

The Canadiens are the second-youngest team in the NHL. This has been made abundantly clear.
But after beating themselves again on Sunday, they did nothing to undo the perception that they’re not just young, they’re bad.

Canadiens goalie Cayden Primeau has a save percentage of .843 this season. That type of goaltending magnifies all the other issues that a team has, and it showed Sunday in Boston.

From a rebuild point of view, you don't get any better than that one. A ton of strong performances by young players who will be the future.
Dach? It's a compete penalty. Big whoop. It doesn't matter people. It doesn't define him. What defines him is how well he played - with an edge - implicated.

It’s in the early part of his fourth shift that Slafkovsky makes the play that kickstarts his most productive outing in over two weeks.
It comes at a pivotal moment of what turns out to be a 4-3 overtime win for his Canadiens on Wednesday. www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/...
