Brandon Hagel was the game’s third star.
Bad habits in a big win where a team takes its foot off the gas and gets overwhelmed with score effects can bite you in the following game. That probably was a lot of the equation tonight compounded by Jake Guentzel being out of the lineup. Shouldn’t have gotten too high about the Rangers win. Can’t get too low now about this loss to the Canadiens. Flush it and get to the next one.
