One team wanted to win it in the alley; the other wanted to win it on the ice. And without a good goalie early, braun may have won it.

Also, what each player, the coach, the GM wants for Christmas as I have a bit of fun in this Call Of The Wilde for Global Montreal.

Extremely satisfying for the organization to have a 35-15 shot advantage and win with authority.

Also a thought on a seeming depth chart change perhaps in the making.

And how does the World Juniors look for the Canadiens?

Usually, I’m quite gentle, but the Canadiens are doing something that winning teams simply do not do. No better example than last night.
