It took nearly a month but Montreal’s offence was out in full force last week as they picked up a trio of wins. Laval continued their offensive run as well as they picked up a pair of wins while continuing to be the highest-scoring team in the AHL.

Montreal looked to finish up their four-game road trip on a winning note on Sunday night in Chicago and received their best goaltending performance of the season en route to a 2-0 victory.

In a game that both teams deserved, the Habs came out on top of a 5-4 overtime decision on Saturday night in Winnipeg. It was exciting from start to finish, a true game for the fans to enjoy from the edge of their seats.

A discouraging start to the road trip after building so many positives during their recent homestand. The 6-3 loss to the Wild that was never truly contested by the Canadiens leaves the Habs in a bad spot with two more road games to be played before a return home.

The Habs knew they wanted to give Al Montoya a bit more goal support than in his last start. They did just that by burying eight en route to an 8-3 victory over Ottawa, their third win in their last four games.

It will be a while yet before Nikita Scherbak gets back into the lineup. The team announced on Monday that he underwent successful knee surgery with an estimated recovery time of six weeks.

It wasn’t pretty at times but it was still a productive week for the Habs who won two of their three games. In Laval, their inconsistent play as of late continued as they managed to pick up three of six points but let a big lead slip away late that proved costly.

After a dominant first period, Montreal allowed the Rangers to get back in the game but they were able to come out with a 5-4 victory nonetheless on Saturday night.
