Now that was a hockey game
Minus Lars Eller, Max Pacioretty and Brian Gionta, the Canadiens came out on fire Friday, defeating the Ottawa Senators 3-1 and tying their series 1-1. Bouncing back after a deflating first game, the Habs were led by the strong play of Carey Price, Rene Bourque, and Ryan White - White playing what was likely the best game of his young NHL career.

Revenge on Pacioretty?
Sadly, there have been a number of low points for the Rangers this season, but to me none worse than the last time the Rangers visited their "House of Horrors" in Montreal.
They were physically dominated from one end of the ice to the other and inexplicably didn't come to the aid of teammates Ryan McDonagh and Marty Biron after they were run by Montreal players...
Eric Engels: Therrien Should Stick to "No Excuses" Mantra
Really? It was P.K. Subban's minor for not high-sticking someone that cost Montreal the game?
Michel Therrien needs to deal with the indiscipline of his star pupil?
Not a word on Max Pacioretty's blatant mistake, backing into Jhonas Enroth for a goaltending interference minor that cost the Canadiens the momentum they had created in periods two and three?

Max Pacioretty or was it David Desharnais' goal against Boston
Boston Bruins versus the Montreal Canadians... At first it appeared that the puck had gone off of Max Pacioretty's stick, but after further review it was obvious that it went off of Johnny Boychuk's stick.
Montreal goal listed as to Max Pacioretty, but thatll be changed to David Desharnais off Johnny Boychuk's stick en route to net. Habs up 2-1

No Discipline for Pacioretty Hit From Behind on McDonagh
As others have reported, NHL decides no supplementary discipline for MTL's Max Pacioretty.
— Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) February 24, 2013
...whatever, suspension wouldn't make McD less injured or change the fact that his teammates didn't stand up for him. Should have taken care of business on the ice.

Injuries are becoming a major concern for the New York Rangers.
The New York Rangers losing ways in Montreal continued last night when they were shutout 3-0, but they lost more than just the game.

X-Rays negative on Girardi, fans can exhale
First things first, apologies for not having a goal breakdown for you guys. Last night was one of those rare nights where none of the five of us were available to write it. Then again, an angry drunk recap is probably not the best thing for the Rangers fan base right now.
For those of you unaware, Girardi took a rocket of a slap shot last night from P.K. Subban off his right ankle...
Apparently There Were Some Injuries Last Night (Girardi Ankle Not Broken)
The Bell Centre has been the Rangers "House of Horrors" the last few years, but last night it was taken to a whole new level.
Not only were the Rangers outplayed, they sustained injuries to key players that may have literally ended any chance the Rangers have of making the playoffs.
The first was to Ryan McDonagh, who according to Andrew Gross at the Bergen Record...

Cam Ward Gives Up Embarrassing Goal on Max Pacioretty Dump-In From Behind Red Line (Video)
Cam Ward didn’t have much fun in Montreal on Monday night. Not only did Ward and the Carolina Hurricanes leave with a loss to the Canadiens, Ward suffered a pretty embarrassing moment in the process.

Cam Ward allows goal from behind the red line
Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty has had a rough start to the season. He had to have an emergency appendectomy, was allegedly bitten by Mikhail Grabovsky and then endured a laceration to his ribs from a skate. Pacrioretty had been unable to find the back of the net this year until fate gave him a lucky bounce. Late in the 3rd period he dumped a puck in from just behind...

Cam Ward lets in the “whoops” goal of the night (VIDEO)
As they say in baseball, a bleeder through the infield will show up as a line drive in the scorebook. This goal by Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty will show up as a wicked wrist in the book…at least that’s how Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward will want it to appear.
Pacioretty will embellish the story and tell his grandkids that he scored from inside his team’s blue line. Except...
