Eric Engels: Habs avoid Lightning strike

Found February 13, 2013 on HockeyBuzz: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Brendan Gallagher,  Carey Price
TEAMS: Montreal Canadiens
Montreal_canadiens_v_443f
Presumably, you saw players from the Canadiens holding Brendan Gallagher back from storming Price after last night's shootout win. It was a modest celebration of a victory earned after spoiling a three-goal lead with less than six minutes on the clock-- not exactly worthy of a bench clearing hooray. It was the kind of celebration you'd expect of a team that expects more of itself. Carey Price...

Canadiens announce they have swapped goaltenders with the Lightning

Via The Bay Cave  |  February 14, 2013
The Montreal Canadiens announced they have swapped goalies with the Tampa Bay Lightning.  The Canadiens will send the Lightning Cedric Desjardins in exchange for Dustin Tokarski. From 2011-2012, Tokarski played in five games with the Lightning and posted a 1-3-1 record with a 3.45 goals against average. He was drafted 122nd overall by the Bolts in 2008. Desjardins was a member of...

Lightning lose fifth straight after shootout with Montreal

Via The Bay Cave  |  February 13, 2013
Another sold out crowd at the Tampa Bay Times Forum was hoping to witness home dominance once again by the Lightning. However, they were outplayed the entire game by the Canadiens and their late rally did not carry into the shootout resulting in their fifth straight loss. Tampa Bay was called for five penalties in the first period and managed to give up just one goal. In the second...

Hockey Fight: Travis Moen (Montreal Canadiens) vs. BJ Crombeen (Tampa Bay Lightning)

Via Backyard Sports Blog  |  February 13, 2013
Check out this hockey fight last night between Travis Moen of the Montreal Canadiens and BJ Crombeen of the Tampa Bay Lightning.  Moen doesn't have much of a fighting history on the ice which resulted in him throwing body shots at Crombeen.  I doubt the punches did too much damage considering they wear protection on the body.  Maybe Moen needs to get in the gym and hit a punching...

NHL Fights: Canadiens’ Travis Moen Tries To Body Punch Lightning’s BJ Crombeen

Via Busted Coverage  |  February 13, 2013
Canadiens’ left winger Travis Moen isn’t much of a fighter. He’s only had 100+ PIM once during his NHL career and only 14 PIM this season. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he was trying to use body shots last night during a brawl with Tampa Bay’s  BJ Crombeen. Crombeen, on the other hand, has a solid HockeyFights.com database. For those of you who are 16 and have...

Eric Engels: Habs look to rebound against Bolts

Via HockeyBuzz  |  February 12, 2013
Fragile was a word often used to describe last year's Canadiens, and though Saturday's game against the Leafs may have provoked the label, their team mentality doesn't appear to be fragile. At least not when you hear the comments from the players after this very tough stretch of games. The story spread yesterday about Erik Cole reaching out to all of his teammates...

Via Kukla's Korner  |  February 14, 2013
MONTRÉAL – Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin announced Thursday the acquisition of goaltender Dustin Tokarski from the Tampa Bay Lightning, in return for goaltender Cédrick Desjardins.

NHL will not punish Grabovski for biting Pacioretty

Via Sports-Glory  |  February 11, 2013
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mikhail Grabovski won't be suspended or fined for allegedly biting Montreal Canadiens winger Max Pacioretty on Saturday night during the Maple Leafs' 6-0 victory. A scrum began towards the end of the game, and in that scrum Pacioretty grabbed Grabovski from behind and covered his mouth with his hand. Pacioretty pulled his arm away and immediately...
