Canes may be a lil rusty with all that time off. Depends again on Freddie.

4-1 Montreal end of the first.

Canes' rustiness was definitely on display last night.

Canes' rustiness was definitely on display last night.

I was thinking the same watching. Canes were making all kinds of mistakes. The Habs are now 4-0 vs the Canes this season.

Just watched the highlights this morning. Canes super aggressiveness led to a lot of really good opportunities for the Habs. At first I thought "Freddie gonna Freddie" but how many of those goals were 2 on 1s, wide open shots in the slot, or breakaways? You might want him to make some of those saves but the number of great chances for Montreal was a little too overwhelming, I think.

I think Carolina regroups and makes a lot fewer defensive mistakes in Game 2.
