Last night in Edmonton, the Canadiens took on the Oilers. But sadly, the Canadiens came out on the losing side. Late in the second the Canadiens were down by 3 goals. But they never gave up. Brian Gionta scored with seconds to go. Then with about 4 minutes to go in the final frame, Roman Hamrlik would score to get within 1. That's as close as they would get as they would lose 3-2 even thought they out-shot the Oilers 35-19."It's extremely disappointing," Canadiens defenseman Paul Mara said. "I thought we played pretty well. We outshot them 35-19. It's tough to lose these last three games after having a great 2-0 start. Hopefully, we can make that ground back up at home and work on all of the things we need to."
"Where we lost the game was mistakes," Martin said. "Two mistakes cost us two goals. It's disappointing because a win here tonight would have made the trip a lot better. We just have to regroup at home now." In the lose Carey Price made 16 saves. As for the Oilers, Nikolai Khabibulin made 33 to grab his team the win."I'm feeling more comfortable," said Khabibulin."I'm feeling a little better. There are still a few things I need to clear up. The last couple of days I'm seeing the puck better." The Canadiens will play there home opener on Thursday against the Avalanche.
