A note to fans of the liveblog: There have been some problems with the HIO site being a bit slow during games this season due to high traffic. The Gazette and our HIO technical staff are aware of the problem and we’re working on a solution to fix it.
There were 38 seconds left in overtime when Andrei Markov scored on a Canadiens power-play to secure a hard-fought 4-3 win.
The Canadiuens had blown a 3-1 third-period lead.
It was Markov’s fourth goal of the young season.
The Devils came into the Bell Centre as the only undefeated team in the Eastern Conference.
Martin Brodeur had given up only three goals through his first three starts.
BIG win.
What a difference a year makes:
It took the Canadiens 10 starts to secure their third win last season.

Markov. Elite defence man. And DD redeems his game.
Now that we can agree on! Woo!

Gally has been the best hab tonight he has to get some pp time here..
Slewfoot….
Cole’s signature play — love that guy!
Mike Boone: “With Gainey at my side, I’d walk into any dark alley in the world.”
for the love of all that is holy..win the faceoff
Bury this!
I guess so..get off the ice..jerk
Wow, patented power move by cole
Vintage Cole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanna see Moe, Armstrong and White for the shootout. Would be comical
When did Hab fans become such idiots? Booing Kovalchuk? Why?
–
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
I was wondering that too.
Galchenyuk and Bourque 2 best Habs tonight
When an 18 year old is your best player, that’s a problem.
Not when it’s this particular 18-year-old. This kid has seen the last of Sarnia!
Mike Boone: “With Gainey at my side, I’d walk into any dark alley in the world.”
tttt
Hey, a SOG for Bourque!

DOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!
smart play by Gally, nice shot by Bourque
Chucky!
smary play by Gally, nice shot by Bourque
nice shift by chuck and borque,
3 posts by the Devils now. Bourque should see how Kovy slowed it down
Yikes bad pinch by markov.
MaxPac being out for a month is going to stick a fork in this season.
DD has to be hurt?
I think he is playing with hurt feelings, from all the short jokes
Even with no points tonight, Markov is just perfect. Calm, steady and excellent.
Mike Boone: “With Gainey at my side, I’d walk into any dark alley in the world.”
A 3-1 lead in the 3rd blown. I forgot how frustrating this was last year
On a positive note – yes, they blew a lead. But the Leafs would have lost 5-3…
Anyone think Bourque had time to fake a shot and cross over to Brodeur’s right side?
Yah, and looking at his reaction on bench, I think he realized he rushed the shot.
Bourque stinks. What a pathetic attempt that was.
You’d stink too if you worked that hard. It’s a sweaty job out there.
A point at least. Gotta get what you can take.

Bork deserves a goal. Working hard out there.
Marc Denis says he violently broke his stick on the boards during first period after a miss. Passion.
Oh and 1 point!
Yakupov just slid by my house again
That Edmonton ice really is the best eh?
Put some salt out and film the faceplant, okay?
Desharnais is sucking out there. I think his NHL shelf life will be short. Think Stéphan Lebeau.
Just hit the net please…..
Bourque! Can’t buy a goal tonight
B had the winner on his stick..darn
ah man i hate when guys miss the net when they’re alone in front like that
Hands of stone Bork.
Bourque and Cole are pissing me off
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
Bourque is playing well imo, just can’t finish. Cole is sucking tho
Agreed
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
Gotta feel for Bourque on that one… He keeps working like this though, and the goals will come.
Mike Boone: “With Gainey at my side, I’d walk into any dark alley in the world.”
Shooter tutor for Bourque next practice?

Missing Kaberle out there. If I were a scout like PG, I would start working on a trade for a man that important.
Clarkson can play hockey, too bad he’s not a Hab. Crap, Bourque you gotta bury that!
Fail.
we really need a mean SOB on our back-end. Really hope Tinordi keeps developing and gets meaner
Man, which ever forward line is on when Markov/Emelin are on sure must enjoy the game much more. Clean, crisp passes in transition all the time.
Seems everybody is getting their first goal with Galchenyuk. Maybe the whole team should just cycle on his wing?
except eller
I would change my name to bluewhitered but I don’t want to start a controversy
chico resch is starting to annoy me. Not as much as that idiot Jackass in Boston or the Florida Panther guys, esp. Lindsay, but irritating me nonetheless. Probably just because game going south
The Gionta parents are getting there wish
The Devils play the Bruins next, you just know they are going to lay down and lose that game, after pulling this one out of their derriere against us.
I was hoping not to see blown leads this year………”misty water coloured memories of the way we were”
Gally please
Price , Cole and Gorges =over 15 million per… didn’t look it last goal
Eller should have had a pen there.
–
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
There is no guaranteed point here. One of these teams could get zero points tonight. Next goal is huge. No duh eh!!!!
NO, this is our building, if this year is to be different than last year, we can’t blow a 2 goal lead. Especially a third period 2 goal lead. Win this efin game in regulation
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
If it goes to shootout… Both Gally’s and Eller please
OT..Mr. Boone
The twin Galleys score in shootout..we win!
I can dream.
Is that Tony Soprano behind New Jersey’s bench
I really thought we were going to win tonight.
Totally blown game.
At 3-1, i heard some ole ole ole, that song should be banned until the game is over and we have won.
A well deserved point for us but not for NJ… #Fluke goals
can’t protect a 3rd period lead – i seem to remember…ah never mind
ohhhh, maybe we see the Gally’s in their first shoot out tonight?
It’s last years habs all over again, blown leads here, there, everywhere, turning tv off…….;
