Yes, Montreal would be ecstatic with a 1-0 win or 2-1, but the bigger picture is the Canadiens know they need to test Henrik Lundqvist, who has struggled in Montreal. Now Montreal goalie Carey Price is very questionable. Even if he does play, the ghosts of playoff past may haunt him after he and Peter Budaj were lit up for seven goals.

In seven playoff games, Budaj is 0-2-0 with an .843 save percentage and 5.13 goals-against average. So Lundqvist and both Montreal goalies have struggled under the parameters of tonight.
