Habs blow lead, fall to Flyers

That’s one the Canadiens will want to forget rather quickly. After a solid start, and two goals by Max Lapierre, Brian Boucher looked to be in for a short night. However, the Flyers had other ideas, and crashed and banged their way to a 3-2 comeback win in Philadelphia. That’s the first time this year the Canadiens have scored first and lost.
Carey Price was without question the best Hab on the ice, making 41 saves in the loss, some of them spectacular. Genuinely, it could have been 8-2 with someone else in net. The Canadiens power play continued to struggle, and Scott Gomez continued to be almost invisible.
Other observations? Claude Giroux is the real deal, and Chris Pronger is still a great defenceman. He’s still a complete jerk. But he’s also still a great defenceman.
