Rick Nash goes a bit nutty in this one and takes a major for spearing. That hurt as the game was close but the Habs ultimately lose 2-1. Miller played better but was still outduelled by Lundqvist unfortunately...we don't have many games where we only score 1.
Oh well, moving forward at least Malone got a point in his first game.
A 2-0 win over the Devils to move into 1st place in the division and 11 points up on 9th place Carolina. Strudwick and Nielsen had the goals and Khabibulin with the SO on a very light workload. New Jersey becomes the 1st team eliminated from playoff contention with the loss. Jason Williams tore knee ligaments in the game but is surprisingly only day to day.
The Flames move up into 6th place in the conference after a 2-1 win last night over the Wings. Chris Kunitz scored his 31st of the year in the first period and added an assist on Eric Cole's game winning goal early in the 3rd. Cam Ward was solid once again.
