The Canadiens got a third-period goal from Tomas Plekanec, redirecting a point shot by rookie Jarred Tinordi, and then held the for a 2-1 win.
It was their fifth win in a row, matching the team’s season high.
The Canadiens have 19 wins in 28 games. They are 10-2-2 on the road.
New Jersey had 18 shots in the third period, but Carey Price was spectacular.
In winning his 15th game, Price made 32 saves.
The win lifted the Canadiens past Pittsburgh and Boston into first place in the Eastern Conference.
The lofty status won’t last: the Bruins and Penguins play Sunday afternoon.
Tinordi played 14:48, picked up his first NHL point and ended the game plus-2.
Colby Armstrong’s first goal of the season gave the Canadiens an early lead – the 21st time they’ve scored first in 28 games.
But Peter Harrold’s first, on a second-period power play, tied the game.

Very poor from Diaz.. I expected more. Not easy fighting with a concussion from the game in ottawa.. oh wait…
Give Diaz some credit…he blocked many take-down attempts. I’ve never seen anyone block so many of GSP’s take-downs before. If he wasn’t so screwed up in the head, he probably could have done much better.
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
Not sure how much credit I’d give Diaz. He made by little effort to attack, even after losing opening rounds. St pierre strategy was sound. Neutralized him.
St. Pierre dominated that fight. Give Diaz credit for being tough. He took a lot of shots. St. Pierre is an amazing fighter, living legend.
…
My God those Vancouver unis are fugly
Diaz has no class.

That was a great fight, Hendicks Condit
Hendricks calling out GSP right before his fight…
That could have waited, kind of disrespectful to Diaz, but Diaz dont respect much anyways
Absolutely Agree
It was. I didn’t think Hendricks could win a decision. Knockout, yes…but he proved me wrong.

Quote from Lupul: ‘We’re scoring, we’re playing hard, I mean, it’s alright to cheer, to come to the game & cheer’
Typical ACC. Everyone’s on their phones. First time I see a player comment about it, though.
Ronnie maclean sucks
The ACC is rightfully nicknamed The Library
Ttypical Torona nite in canada. Sad for sure. why all the time TNIC? SICKENING!! GO GO HEATLEY GO
Im kinda thinkin that the habs are tryin hard to send Ryder’s huge contract down the toilet.
No need too.. he’s a UFA at seasons end.

Hendricks Condit fight is a good one.

Just got home from the Prudential Center where I was sitting third row in back of the Habs bench. Based on the view at ice level, Price was a beast and Eller and Chucky looked great defensively. Tinordi looked like he belonged. The big boy was plus 2 with an assist and played about 14 min. He kept the game simple and did not look slow. He will make this team next season.

How about this season???

What time does this St. Pierre fight start???
in about 15 minutes
Thanks! I hope I can get it on here then.
IAn , How about Al MacNeil? Remember the Henri Richard episode?
So much fun watching the new players. Now if only we could get rid of Moen (Moan)…Armstrong…White. Really, what were they thinking when they re-signed Moan…Price good tonight. Stay off your knees Carey and good things can happen.
Hope Sid and the boys beat the Go-ins.
keep Army
I know all about the NS Vees. How about Al Mac Neil, THE COACH FROM sYDNEY AFTER HE WON THE 1971 STANLEY CUP IN MONTREAL? HE GOT THE Friggin’ SHAFT FOR GOD’S SAKE. They than Sent him to Halifax to run the NS VEES farm team. WHAT A FRICKIN JOKE!!! ALL BECAUSE HE COULDNT SPEAK FRENCH. He had death threats. By the way, HE WON THE STANLEY CUP WITH A FELLa NaMED KEN DRYDEN BETWWEN THE PIPES.
Those Vancouver uniforms are like when you see someone put a sweater on a dog , and the dog looks really embarrassed to have to wear it
Another 15-20 before the GSP fight…time for some Jameson
Great Idea
Who is the best coach in the NHL or is it Punch
right now Quenneville
Really? with Toews, Kane, Keith,Sharp, Hossa and Seabrook? and only 6 points ahead of the Habs.. who finished 15th in the east last year? and have had Injuried to BOURQUE, DIAZ, PRUST and now Ryder..
Right on, Therrian is the best coach in the nhl. go mickey bb.
MT!
Anyone else a bit disappointed by Pleks reaction after his goal? Celebrating by himself in the corner with both arms in the air — Look at me, Look at me!
I real team player, and supposed veteran leader to boot, would have gone right over to Tinordi and congratulated him on his first NHL point. Maybe it’s just me…
~~~> Mathematically eliminated…
You’d celebrate like that too if you were playing with Moen
Yes – it’s just you.

Good.
~~~> Mathematically eliminated…
Hey monmick i missed the shot of Mark Tinordi in the stands, sounds like from your comment he has filled out a little bit ,
A little bit, yes. But I’m sure he would say the same thing about me…
~~~> Mathematically eliminated…
No, it’s really just you.
He was just continuing momentum. Immediately after doing the arm pump he looked up to the blue line right at Tinordi and then curled and skated that way and they embraced.
Seriously?
“Et le but!”
Thanks to HardHabits and YoNiko for the GSP link, if i may just call it that
