Sam Montembeault delivered an exceptional performance as the goaltender for the Montreal Canadiens in their recent game against the New York Rangers. Despite the Canadiens' loose defense, Montembeault was a significant presence on the ice, making a total of 46 saves throughout the game, including 30 critical saves that helped the team cling to a narrow 3-2 lead. His efforts were highlighted by a particularly impressive glove save against the Rangers' Panarin, which was described as 'glove robbery'. The game concluded with the Canadiens securing a 4-3 victory after Montembeault stopped all three attempts during the shootout, contributing to an entertaining match.
This save from Montembeault is perfection. https://t.co/D986jXCzCs
Sam Montembeault with 46 saves for the Canadiens vs. the Rangers tonight and then stopped all three shootout attempts in a 4-3 win. Entertaining game. https://t.co/ELv3YwgZ5s
wow, that Montembeault save
Montembeault has been big for the Habs tonight. They've played loose defense in front of him, but he has them clinging to a 3-2 lead with 30 saves already. The last one was glove robbery against Panarin.
Montembeault should have went for the goalie goal here. https://t.co/rg56nh1QFR
