HALAK MADE 53 SAVES TO FORCE A GAME 7
Last night in Montreal, the Montreal Canadiens once again avoided elimination with a 4-1 due to great play by Halak (53 saves)."Huge saves. Big, big time saves," said Montreal winger Brian Gionta. "We got two early goals, we wanted to get the lead, and then he shut the door. It was him from that point on. And it wasn't just the amount of shots, he faced a lot of quality shots. He's unbelievable." Mike Cammalleri opened the scoring with two quick goals (one of them assisted by P.K Subban). But the Habs weren't done there. Early in the third period, Maxime Lapierre scored his first ever goal to put Montreal up by 3. The Capitals added a late goal to make it 3-1. But Plekanec answerd back with a empty net goal.
"I saw Mike out there and got it to him and he put it on the net," said Subban (about his assist). "Like Don Cherry says, put the puck on net an and good things happen." Game 7 of this series will be on Wednesday on TSN, Versus and RDS.
