This was a very big game in terms of setting the scene for the days and weeks to come in the Eastern Conference and Montreal made a big statement to Ottawa with a regulation win that brings the Habs within a single point of the Senators for the number one spot.
The Habs were up 4-1 midway through the second period on two goals from Tomas Plekanec and one each from Andrei Kostitsyn and Mark Streit. The Senators made a game of it by scoring a couple of goals in the third to make things close but the Habs held on for a huge 4-3 victory.
The Canadiens will host the flopping Maple Leafs (they got pounded 8-0 tonight by Florida) on Thursday before taking a trip to Ottawa to face the Sens again.
