Edmonton turned to back-up Calvin Pickard goalie and he posted the win — but not before Montreal gave it a tremendous effort, losing 3-2 in overtime.
A difficult five-game road trip continued Tuesday night for the Montreal Canadiens with a date in Edmonton. The Oilers are one of the hottest clubs in the league, but don’t always have great goaltending, so Montreal had hoped to catch that advantage at Rogers Place.
Some home cooking for Guhle before the game, some family and friends in attendance, and probably some money on the board, all acted as incentives for a kid who does not need any to pour his heart into every game. Guhle and Matheson did a strong job shutting down Connor McDavid. He got that injury driving to the net. In fact, he ended up in the net, taking it right off its moorings. Anderson may not be right physically due to that injury. He also may not be right emotionally due to that injury. He certainly is not the same player since that injury.
