The good news is that the Habs woke up in the second, and even tied the score thanks to a Christian Thomas PPG. Nikita Scherbak and Jiri Sekac looked great, as both players are making a very strong impression on Habs brass.
The bad news is that Michael McCarron was shoved awkwardly in the net, and seems to have injured his arm.
