For the first time this season, Bell Centre fans go home happy on a Saturday night.
Goals by Brendan Gallagher, David Desharnais and, in the third period, Tom Plekanec and Rene Bourque sealed the deal.
But the win could be costly: Brandan Gallagher, chosen as first star of the game, didn’t come out to toss pucks.
Gallagher was injured during the game, as were Max Pacioretty, Colby Armstrong and Alexei Emelin.
Canadiens had a 29-19 shot advantage but were outhit 32-20, which might account for the injuries.

2nd effort big saves look great; especially when you screw up the first shot. Sorry, but true
Last year it was us who would miss those.
Good eye, Budaj!

Hextall was just being a good Flyer. Remember when Bobby Clarke skated onto the ice with an axe by mistake? Just kidding.
Ex tall e
Know what’s funny? MisspelLed Hextall and it auto-corrected to “hey y’all”. That’s a word?
In the Deep South it is.

Last 5 minutes, pressure and Max and Gally out….

Flyers suck and they are bad luck.

uh oh
Eventhough they’re leading I start seeing the same dump and chase/can’t efficiently get the puck out of the zone/hesitation on the attack kind of fragileness. The creativity of the first few games seems long gone.
come on boys wrap this up and work for that beer!
Injuries make for creative line combo’s

Maybe he gets called up..if Gallagher is hurt..or Blunden.
Didn’t look like Patch hit the post very hard. i think it was something else; maybe a pull of something as it was a little awkward
Dropping like flies!!
Lets hope Patches & Gally just “nicked” & held out for precautionary reasons..
3 players down. I hope nothing is long term.
Uh-oh, Gally not returning tonight, and MaxP possibly cut by skate.
Gally not coming back tonight.
Euccchhhh..

How did Gio miss that
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
which one
Diaz shot came right to him on the PP, I believe off the boards. It looked like he had an open net
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
was that gio or bourque who missed that?
No, two good guys gone :/
I can’t stand that Ferraro keeps saying Galyenchuk on cbc…
Stop. Watching. HNIC.

Im in Mexico.. Im at the mercy of the streams.. an RDS one would be great.

Ah.
My sympathy for someone forced to watch HNIT is tempered in this case due to the fact that you’re in Mexico.

I agree with the Kassian comment
Max hurt. Looked like his elbow.
Anyone remember Ron Hextall attacking Chelios?
Not the same Flyers

“It’s just an opinion – I could be wrong”
yeah that was nutty!
called hit against Gally “a rough ride”…. more like a nasty hit from behind!
nasty hit
…this version of the Philthydelphia Phlyers seem more like the Columbus Blue Jackets in disguise
If we had Kassian; Schenn would be in emerg. Mind you the Flyers would have a 5 min power play
“Flyers looking tired”
Don’t hex the team Mr B.
Gotta be honest

Know who looks tired?
Mike Knuble.
He’s 41!!
Looks 51.

Bork is everything you could ask for
Does Bork eat Pourque?

Listening to Bjorque
So painful to listen to cole… even when he praises them, which is rare
turn off the sound listen to tsn690 even with delay its the same!
Update on Gallagher?

Nice one Bourque
…I was just advised on My IPod app that Briere scored, 2-1
…are the HIO tech hamsters being paid ?

Just say this to every Leaf fan from now on: “if the Leafs are so great why are some Mtl players careers more amazing than Leaf franchise history?” (Cough)Henri Richard (cough) hundred others (cough).

Woa, Shea Weber scored…
GUYS!, I stepped out before Gally was hurt, did it look like a concussion???
No Gally, crap
C’mon Eric……brakes on and chase the puck…..what’s with this backward swirl a la Jamie Sale
Great play along the boards by Bourque on Plekanec goal, he has been good,
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
Cutesy play by Subban is not winning over MT
KEEP IT UP, MAKE IT 6-1 AND THEN CROSS-CHECK SHENN IN THE NECK!
Aside from the blocked shot on that empty net, Subban has been really off tonight
True. But he’s playing huge minutes.
gorges having an off night

I think Habs have game in hand.Unless a meteor flies over the Bell Centre and disrupts everything.
bad play Prust… but you are forgiven
Just had Pleka-sex.
That was quick
Sure hope Boone’s next goal prediction was right.
PLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re bleeding outside the internet

Does udaj have to kick those 20 ft rebound right up the slot?
Eller is too skilled for the 4th line, but we have no other center
Boone said it.
Next goal wins it…

sweet,huge goal.
yeah!
phew
PJ Stock pontificating about O’Reilly – and its clear his knowledge of the guy starts and ends with his points totals gleaned from nhl.com. All the others jumped on him..
Is that knuble on the ice or kanoodle?
gally, Chucky and Eller have to be the 3 palest guys in the league
They didn’t stay in Florida long enough.

Subban’s D on opposing rushes is almost sublime. 5 moves by the forward and he just pokes it away
Galchenyuk has sick moves eh?
Full Breezer 4 Life
if he keeps it together, fills out, adds a little aggression to his game, and improves in the next few seasons, I see no reason why he won’t be a dominant NHL player in the mold of Kovalchuck or Hossa.
rediculous that subban is not on the first pp.
deanepaul
He was on the first four. The powerplay was threatening for the first time with Diaz and Marky.
Nice holding in front
