Carey Price earns shutout as Canadiens blank Canucks for eighth-straight win
MONTREAL — Defenceman Nathan Beaulieu believes Montreal’s win against Vancouver on Wednesday night should act as a wake-up call for his side.
The Canadiens were flat for much of the game but still crept away with a 3-0 win against the Canucks to extend their winning streak to eight games.
The Habs looked disorganized throughout the encounter as Vancouver outshot them 42-21.
“It’s probably the worst game we’ve played this year,” said Beaulieu, who scored the winner in the second period. “We definitely got away with one. We just weren’t sharp. We were on our heels. We sat back and didn’t dictate the game. It’s a lesson tonight.
