It’s been a reversal of roles for the Canadiens and Islanders as the Habs have been deadly on the powerplay and the Islanders have cleaned up at even strength.
The PK has been terrible all year, and if not for several desperation saves by Carey Price, it would have them behind against tonight. Sometimes things get ignored while you’re having success, but the Canadiens can not go into the playoffs with the penalty kill playing like it does now.
