The Montreal Canadiens<\/a> have won seven of the last ten games, and three of four in the last week. Their recent success is due, in part, to the play of\u00a0Charlie Lindgren<\/a><\/strong>. The Habs have been without\u00a0Carey Price<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0since their loss to Minnesota on November 2. Adding to their woes, on Saturday, the Canadiens announced that Al Montoya<\/a><\/strong> suffered a concussion and is out indefinitely<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Scores and News<\/h2>\n

The Canadiens started a six-game, two week\u00a0home stand on Tuesday\u00a0against the Vegas Golden Knights<\/a>. The Habs skated well. After allowing two early\u00a0goals, goaltender Maxime Lagace<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>finished\u00a0a strong game. Vegas came back and nearly tied it. Thankfully,\u00a0Charlie Lindgren<\/a> <\/strong>played an amazing game\u00a0and stood on his head in the third period. He held on for his first win at the Bell Center.<\/p>\n

The Habs had bad puck luck and two goals disallowed against the Minnesota Wild<\/a> on Thursday night. They still took 41 shots and had the lion\u2019s share of<\/a> the scoring chances. They were undone by a\u00a0Jason Zucker<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0hat trick. Indeed, their 3-0 loss was a disappointing end to an otherwise decent effort.<\/p>\n

Finally, the Habs beat\u00a0Jack Eichel<\/a><\/strong> and the Buffalo Sabres<\/a> on Saturday night. They won 2-1. They won, this time, in overtime. Captain Max Pacioretty<\/a><\/strong> scored his career 10th regular-season overtime goal<\/a>. The goal moved him past Habs greats Aurele Joliat<\/a><\/strong> and Howie Morenz<\/a><\/strong>. He has the most overtime goals of any Montreal Canadien player, ever.<\/p>\n
