MTL@NJD: What you need to know
NEWARK – Near even in the Eastern Conference standings, the Canadiens and Devils square off at Prudential Center on Thursday night.
Here’s what you need to know heading into the game:
Tuesday at the Bell Centre was a case of “Oops, we (almost) did it again.” The Canadiens nearly pulled off another comeback, but this time, they got burned. It’s hard to pin the 3-0 first-period deficit solely on the power play goals they surrendered –– Montreal simply came out flat. But as they’ve shown all season, this team doesn’t fold easily. They battled back to force overtime, earning a point in the process.

All good things must come to an end, although the Canadiens probably would have hoped for a more memorable event than what transpired on Tuesday night.
Facing the possibility of a five-game winning streak, les Habitants played what has been described as their worst game of the season, yielding three goals to the Philadelphia Flyers in the first period. In a game that was meant to restore Samuel Montembeault’s form and confidence — not necessarily in that order — the native of Becancour felt the crimson glow of the goal lamp thrice within the first six shots on goal that he faced.
