Flat Habs Overtaken by Panthers
The Habs came out slow and flat last night in Florida, resulting in a 2-1 nipping by the Panthers and a bump out of the playoff picture.
A slow first period saw the goalies at each end, Jaroslav Halak and Thomas Voukon respectively, hold the fort, keeping the game scoreless. The second period was more of the same but the Habs couldn’t seem to generate any offense, registering only four shots on net. Luckily a swat out of the air on the powerplay lead to Tomas Plekanec scoring a pretty goal and putting the Canadiens up 1-0.
Montreal seemed to get even lazier in the third period, being outplayed and dropping two goals, one on a penalty shot and both by the Panther’s Shawn Matthias. The loss marks the first time this season that the Canadiens have lost when leading after two periods.
The loss drops the Habs to ninth in the Eastern Conference; they’ll try to recoup those two lost points tonight when they face Vinnie Lecavilier and the Tampa Bay Lightning. I expect Halak to get the start despite the loss.

Montreal made their second stop in the citrus state with a game against the Florida Panthers; they lost to Tampa last night 3-2 in regulation. The Panthers jumped to a quick 1-0 lead with a powerplay goal by Montador 12:04 into the first period and that lead stuck for over 40 minutes of gameplay. Tomas Voukon and Carey Price both made save after save to keep the game at 1-0 until midway through the third period when Chris Higgins capitalized on a funny bounce off of a faceoff in the Florida end to finally tie the game at one goal apiece. Carey Price saw the Habs through a late Panthers powerplay with several more spectacular saves and the game made it into overtime.
