The atmosphere was electric at the Bell Centre last night.<\/p>\n
Let’s be honest, watching the Montreal Canadiens dismantle the Capitals 6-2 does wonders for team morale before heading out West.<\/p>\n
Josh Anderson took control of the locker room to present the famous wolf head. The suspense lasted quite a while before he finally revealed his choice in front of his teammates.<\/p>\n
Jakub Dobes could have had it, no question. Nicknamed “Dobby,” the netminder was on fire, delivering a solid performance to shut down the opposing attacks.<\/p>\n
In the end, it was Cole Caufield, our “Mr. Saturday Night,” who received the honor. The American was dominant, scoring his 34th and 35th goals of the current campaign.<\/p>\n
It’s simple: Caufield is in a class of his own this season. He finished the game with a +2 rating and two goals.<\/p>\n
At his side, young Ivan Demidov wore a wide smile. The chemistry between the two organizational prospects is obvious, and the future looks bright.<\/p>\n
A clear message before the trip<\/p>\n
Let’s admit it, Cole’s speech after receiving the fur fired everyone up. “Let’s go on the road,” he said confidently to rally the group.<\/p>\n
Martin St-Louis’ squad is leaving Montreal this morning for a stretch of games on the West Coast. This California swing always represents a physical challenge for the players.<\/p>\n
The Canadiens currently hold a 33-17-9 record and is looking to build on this quick turnaround. You can sense that the group is more united than ever this season.<\/p>\n
Everyone will sleep well tonight before boarding the plane. Winning in that fashion, with such efficiency, is exactly what was needed to kick off the month of March.<\/p>\n
We will be watching closely to see if that energy carries over into opposing arenas. Montreal fans can be proud of the performance delivered against Ovechkin’s group.<\/p>\n
