07:52 BUF ADAM PARDY : HOLDING – 2 MIN (MICHAEL RYDER)
Beautiful passing from Rene Bourque, Tomas Plekanec, and Michael Ryder has the Canadiens up 2-0 over the Sabres after 20 minutes of play.
Even better? The crowd was booing the Sabres a bit after a particularly awesome shift for the Habs, and Steve Ott whined about it again to Elliott Friedman.
Like the last few games against Buffalo, the Canadiens are obliterating on puck possession. The Habs are +12 in Fenwick, +14 in Corsi.
40 more minutes of that please.
