Jacob Fowler Steals the Show in St. Louis

For the Blues, Jordan Binnington was in net.

Here's their lineup:

In the first period, both teams traded scoring chances, but neither could find the back of the net.

Habs fans held their breath when Jonatan Berggren collided with Jacob Fowler.

Fortunately, the Canadiens' goalie got back up unharmed and remained in the game.

In the second period, Zachary Bolduc was the only player to find the back of the net.

While the Habs' first power-play unit was still struggling, it was the second unit that broke the deadlock.

After a magnificent pass from Mike Matheson, Bolduc fired a powerful one-timer to open the scoring late in the power play.

The goal held special significance for the Quebec forward, who was making a return to St. Louis. Let's just say he found a great way to bring back fond memories for Blues fans.

The Canadiens had Jacob Fowler to thank, as he had an excellent second period.

The Blues dominated the second period, out-shooting the Habs 13-9. Fortunately, the young goaltender held the fort and helped his team maintain their lead.

In the third period, Florian Xhekaj scored his very first NHL goal by deflecting a shot from Mike Matheson past the Blues' goaltender.

The goal was reviewed for a possible high stick, but it was ultimately allowed.

The Blues pulled their goalie with nearly seven minutes remaining in the third period.

Jacob Fowler and the Canadiens' defense held strong despite pressure from St. Louis.

What a save by Fowler!

A total of 46 saves for the young Canadiens goaltender.

Final score: 2-0 in favor of the Habs.

The Canadiens will face the powerful Dallas Stars on Thursday night to wrap up their road trip.
