HABS LOSE 3-0 AGAIN TO GO DOWN 2 GAMES IN THE SERIES


Yesterday afternoon in Montreal, the Canadiens came out strong. But collapsed in the second period and only had 1 shot. Which gave the Flyers several chances which lead to a 2-0 Flyer lead going into the third. In the third the Habs found there game, but were unable to score. So the Flyers would score on the empty and garbed a 3-0 win and a 3-1 series lead. In every game Montreal lost in this series they were held goalless. So what do they have do next game you ask. The have to score a goal and win the game or they will be knocked out of the playoffs.But it's not like they haven't been in this situation before. Just ask Mike Cammalleri.

"It's a familiar feeling for us," said Canadiens winger Michael Cammalleri. "We seem to play our best hockey in this situation. And here we go again." In my opinion, this series is far from over. If they can come back against the Capitals and the Penguins they can come back against the Flyers. It's obvious what they have to do next (besides score) is grab a win in Philadelphia. If they do that they will have all the momentum going back to Montreal.

In the win, Giroux had 2 goals and Timonen scored for the Flyers."The trouble was we didn't get the puck in deep," said Montreal coach Jacques Martin. "We turned it over numerous times.We played in dangerous zones -- the blue lines. In this type of game you need to be patient and manage the puck well. We kept the puck in front of their defense instead of behind them."

Game 5 will be Monday at 7:00pm E.t on CBC, Versus and RDS
