#Habs Brendan Gallagher really deserves to score a goal in this game. #HabsIO
#Habs defenceman Jayden Struble continues to really impress me. #HabsIO
#Habs defenceman Jayden Struble makes so many smart, short breakout passes. Hard to believe this is only his 10th NHL game. #HabsIO
Predators score PP goal with Brendan Gallagher in penalty box to go up 1-0 on #Habs with 8:19 left in first period. #HabsIO
Montreal's Jayden Struble was another @GoNUmhockey alum in the game tonight and earned his first NHL goal. “I was talking to him before the game and was like, ‘Hey, let me get my first,’ and he’s like, ‘No chance.’ It feels good, yeah, for sure.”
Some real solid goaltending between the Sabres & Canadiens tonight. Primeau saved 2.4 goals above expected against 63 unblocked shots. Levi with a GSAx of 0.8 – two quality starts in a row since re-joining the team (@NatStatTrick)
Moments before the fight, Levi with another great save on the penalty kill.
Hard to believe this is only Jayden Struble's ninth NHL game with #Habs. So patient and poised with the puck. Makes smart plays. #HabsIO
Amazing save by Levi.
Oh wow. Devon Levi with a spectacular split save to prevent the Canadiens from scoring on a 2-on-1. Suzuki made a great pass to Caufield. Didn't matter. Still 2-2 with 10:32 left in the 3rd.
The way Jayden Struble is playing for #Habs I don't see how they can send him back to Laval. #HabsIO
And Nick Suzuki puts #Habs up 2-0 on Sabres. #HabsIO
Montreal scored with two seconds left on the 4-on-4 as Struble goes to the net and tips in his first NHL goal past his former Northeastern teammate Levi. Then on the 3:00 power play, Suzuki over Levi's shoulder and it's 2-0 Mont.
Now Nick Suzuki scores at 13:12. 2-0 Montreal.
2-0 Canadiens. Nick Suzuki carries it in with speed and beats Levi with a shot to the far post.
Nick Suzuki scores immediately after. 2-0 Habs.
Jayden Struble gets a drive-by deflection on Jonathan Kovacevic's shot to make it 1-0 Montreal. Really good sneaky play and that came while it was 4-on-4. Habs make it 2-0 quickly on the continued major when Nick Suzuki wires one by Levi
Jayden Struble has his first NHL goal, and it’s a beauty.

1-0 Canadiens Jayden Struble's first NHL goal. Perfect redirect of a Kovacevic pass with 7:01 left in the 2nd period.
