Game preview: Canadiens @ Maple Leafs
With Carey Price out with the Flu, Jaroslav Halak will make his second straight start tonight against the Toronto Maple Leafs (Who lost 8-5 to the Flyers last night. more on that later). The Habs are 1 point ahead of the 7th place Rangers and are just 2 points back of 6th place Penguins."We're not looking at where we're at in the standings. We're just looking at winning games," Canadiens forward Alex Tanguay said. "Points are crucial, and it's going to be no different for us Saturday in Toronto.
"It took a wile for the Canadiens to adapt to Bob Gaineys system a little longer the Canadiens expected to." Well you don't change things overnight or one game, it takes time. You need some results you need some wins constant play to kinda get the message thought and get the players to believe in the system, Koivu said."
"When we did not get the wins, Gainey made us find a way to win,"Koivu added.As for the Leafs, they are officially knocked out of the race for the playoffs. But were having played great until last night against the Flyers. They Leafs were down 6-0 but then scored 3 late second period goals. But they could not complete the comeback as they lost 8-5."We had some guys who basically mailed it in tonight and didn't want to compete," Wilson said. "We knew that they would come hard." The Puck drop for tonights game will be at 7:08pm E.T On CBC and RDS.
