Quick Takes: Blue Jackets 2, Canadiens 1
Here’s what happened
First Period
Josh Anderson, camped in the front of the net, deflects a laser from Markus Nutivaara for the opening goal.
Second Period
Ugh
Third Period
More ugh, this time with a rebound goal by Paul Byron off of a rush following a Montreal takeaway.
Overtime
Good news, finally, as Zach Werenski scores off a beautiful feed from Cam Atkinson.
Conclusion
Bob was the hero, AGAIN. Saved a lot of would-be goals. The offense was MIA again, as was the power play (what else is new?).
Silver lining: despite a poor game, the Jackets leave with 2 points. I’ll take it.
Full recap coming in the morning.
