Will the Canadiens Strike Back?

Game 6 is tonight between the Montreal Canadiens and the Boston Bruins and boy have things turned around for the better for the Boston Bruins. This is Game 6 at the Bell Centre and the Montreal Canadiens have not won at home yet.




Game 5 was a surpriser as Boston finally got a huge home win and managed to take a 3-2 lead in the series but Montreal is looking at trying to get their home win and force the series back to Boston for Game 7.

Mike Cammalleri is doing things well for the Montreal Canadiens with 5 assists and 2 goals, totaling 7 points so far in these playoffs. But he's to do better tonight if he's expecting to win for his team and force the series back to Boston.

So will Mike Cammalleri and the Canadiens strike back? Or is this Boston's game? I think the Canadiens will come out tonight and allow for Carey Price to get some breathing room as they finally get that offense doing and allow the defense and goaltender Price to do their jobs. Tim Thomas will have to be good tonight, but it might not be enough as the Canadiens know what they need to do in order to stay alive in this series.



I don't think the Boston Bruins will have enough tonight as they did in Game 5. Yes, they had a big emotional win at home, but Montreal knows how to punish teams with emotion. They hit the goal hard and they smack it into the net. That's something Montreal knows they can get past in crucial games.

The bitter rivalry between the two teams is rather extraordinary. Fights during the regular season and a big playoff series right now should make for some exciting hockey for us tonight. Bruins-Canadiens tonight at 4:00 pm PT. Should make for some playoff hockey, puckheads.
