NHL: Montreal Canadiens at Philadelphia Flyers

For our new readers and members, the Top Six Minutes is a continuation of the discussion in the game thread. We try to keep it light and entertaining. Full recaps are up the morning after every game.

First Period

WEEEEE HAVE JOHNSON.
Petry with a milestone game, Hart vs Price, a game with serious playoff implications, seems like a good way to spend Tuesday night.
Nice chance from Kulak
If you're gonna cough the puck up in front of your own net, Claude Giroux is NOT the guy you're gonna want to do that against.
That was a really early whistle...
Lehk with a few nice plays there.
Oh good lord, Habs.
Another nice chance from Kulak.
GALLY GOALS ARE THE BEST GOALS. IT IS KNOWN.

Second Period

Oh no... Jeff.
O CAPTAIN, OUR CAPTAIN.
Please go play on the other side of the ice, boys.
They were doing so well to end the first, and to start the second, and now, the Flyers are running the show.
Thank goodness for Carey Price though.
Habs starting to look a little better.
JoDru with a good shift there.
One of these days Lehkonen is gonna score when I'm watching a game.

Third Period

No goals for you Ghost Bear.
One of these days Victor Mete is gonna score...but apparently today is not that day.
It took until the third period to get the first power play of the game!
JVR has been making me nervous all game. This shift is not helping.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
The refs are calling nothing. This is ridiculous.
Ok, Habs....all you have to do is NOT MESS THIS UP IN THE FINAL TWO MINUTES.
Empty net for the Flyers...
EMPTY NETTER FOR DOMI.
Habs win 3-1!!
