What a wild game that was between the Canadiens and the Sabres! A 7-5 scoreline is always a rollercoaster, and it’s great to see the Habs finally break their losing streak. The performance of their stars was crucial, especially Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki stepping up when the team needed them most. It’s a classic case of the stars needing to shine, and they did just that!
However, I have to agree with the concerns about Cayden Primeau. His performance has been shaky this season, and giving up five goals on just 14 shots is simply not acceptable for a backup goalie in the NHL. The Canadiens need him to be a reliable option, especially with a young roster trying to find its footing. If he can’t step up, it might be time to give someone else a shot, like Connor Hughes or Jakub Dobes, who are putting up solid numbers in the AHL.
It’s also interesting to see how the Canadiens managed to win despite their defensive lapses. They allowed the Sabres to equalize almost immediately after scoring, which shows a lack of focus at critical moments. They need to tighten up defensively if they want to build on this win and find some consistency moving forward.
Looking ahead, the matchup against the Wild will be tough, especially since they’ll be looking to bounce back after a loss. It’ll be a true test for the Canadiens to see if they can carry this momentum into their next game. What do you think? Can they pull off another upset?
