CANADIENS LOSE TO THE PENGUINS BY THE SCORE OF 3-1


Last night in Pitsburgh, the Canadiens took on the defending champs. And the result was not good. They ended up just getting 1 goal and giving up 3."They moved the puck a lot, possessed the puck a lot, especially those guys (Evgeni) Malkin and Crosby," Montreal forward Sergei Kostitsyn said. In the loss, Max Pacioretty scored the loan goal and Carey Price made 27 saves on 30 shots. As for the Penguins, Crosby, Gonchar(got the game winning goal) and Guerin all scored in the win. The goaltender (Marc Andrei Fleury) was also a big factor in the win by making 18 saves on 19 shots.

"I saw Gonch coming late and I didn't really have an angle to pass it on the forehand, so I just tried to spin there and give myself a better angle," Crosby said about the game winning goal. "It wasn't a great pass, it was in his feet, but he kicked it up to his stick and made a great move."
