Canadiens Enter a Crucial Week With Three Games That Could Shape Their Season
The Montreal Canadiens are preparing to play three games this week - a perfect opportunity to test the team's consistency in this still-young season.
After playing only twice last week, the Canadiens will have three games over the next five days.
Two of those games will be against two of the best teams in the NHL right now.
Even though the team has won its last three outings, the Flyers - who are currently playing at the Bell Centre - are completely dominating after the first period. They're clearly hungry and desperate to clinch a win.
It will be important for Martin St-Louis' players to show their coach that they can bounce back and play a full 60 minutes.
Thursday's matchup looks tougher for the Tricolore, with a road game against the Devils.
It'll be interesting to see how the Canadiens fare against a team just as explosive as they are.
The week will end back in Montreal on Saturday with a visit from André Tourigny and his gang.
If the Canadiens have been a pleasant surprise early in the season, the same can be said for Utah's team.

After this week, it'll be interesting to evaluate the team's performance, as they'll have played nearly 20% of their season.
Fans are eager to see how Martin St-Louis will manage the crease in the coming days, especially after he confirmed Monty as his main goaltender for the rest of the season.
After his win on Saturday, Montembeault wants to keep building momentum, while Dobes hopes to earn a spot on his country's roster for the upcoming Olympics.
Both goalies will have a chance to prove themselves once again this week.
So far tonight, things haven't been going Montembeault's way...
And weeks like this often become turning points in a season.
