from the CP via TSN,
The Predators outplayed Montreal for most of the game, but Huet held them off with a succession of fine saves in the first two periods and with the help of two hit goalposts.
“This was a perfect chance to get a win despite the team having a bad game,” said Huet. “It is disgraceful to blow a lead like that, especially at home.
“I can’t explain it.”
Except that he did later, saying: “We’re a fragile team. We’re a little weak between the ears.”
His teammates jumped to Huet’s defence, saying the game could have been out of reach early if he hadn’t shut the door in the first two periods.

This could be a case of the press making something out of nothing. When a team played the night before, and has a game like that against a team that did not...Well, you take those losses with a grain of salt. Tuesday, both the Wings and Habs will have been off since Saturday, and there is a good chance that both teams will last longer than 2 periods.
I did like this:
“Now Nashville heads for Toronto on Tuesday night riding a 9-2-2 record since Nov. 1 and looking to make it a sweep through Eastern Canada.”
You could substitute W/Conf for Nashville in that statement and it would not surprise anyone who watches both Conferences.
