The play of Price was certainly a huge factor early in this game. But Boston had a lot of trouble with Montreal early on - getting goaded into penalties, making bad passes and just losing pucks in general. I don't think they dominated nearly as much as I thought they dominated the first game. In fact they looked a bit off/tired to me.

Full disclosure - I am cheering for Boston and Iggy (obviously) but I think Montreal played Boston a lot closer than some are willing to admit and some of Boston's key guys were making sloppy plays as a result (Marchand, and even Chara for example). Rask made a couple of huge saves as well.
