Canadiens vs. Blackhawks Top Six Minutes: Back-to-back wins in the West

First Period

• Just a minute - I have to catch up on all of this Duchene trade madness
• OK - Go Habs Go!
• Charlie Lindgren getting his first start against the Chicago Blackhawks and looking sharp early on
• Jordie Benn and Shea Weber paired up tonight hoooo boy I don’t know about this
• LINDGREN FOR THE VEZINA
• Aside from some silly penalties, Habs are looking decent, SOG 14-9 in favour of Chicago

Second Period

• Is anyone else yawning
• I am liking Alex Galchenyuk and Jonathan Drouin together like, a lot
• Victor Mete has had his ice time cut drastically this game and I do not approve
• Can someone score a goal or what
• End of the second, no score, SOG 28-18 in favour of Chicago

He’s (Lindgren) giving us a chance to win tonight. - Alex Galchenyuk

Third Period

• Ok yes Galchenyuk and Drouin stay together forever - it has been decided
• Habs haven’t lost a step heading into the third period
• Joe Morrow scores! His first goal and first point of the season
• Seriously, I sound like a broken record but Galchenyuk is rejuvinated
• I am finding myself asking the question ‘Is Andrew Shaw actually an ok player’ a lot this season
• Phillip Danault blocks a shot and goes down...holding my breath
• Empty net for Chicago...
• Everyone is battling incredibly hard to keep this shutout on tap for Lindgren
• And Lindgren gets his very first NHL shutout!
