Following a close 1-0 overtime victory against the Montreal Canadiens, coach Craig Berube praised his team's defensive efforts, noting they limited opponents' chances and supported their defense. With five defensemen in the lineup, the team emphasized the importance of restricting zone time. Noteworthy performances included Mitch Marner stepping up on defense during crucial moments and goaltender Anthony Stolarz demonstrating excellent composure. The win clinched home-ice advantage for the upcoming playoffs, highlighting the team's ongoing commitment to focusing on their next tasks as they aim for success in the final games of the season.
We talked about playing really good defense tonight and keeping it tight. I thought our team did that. We helped our D out.
There was definitely an awareness to be above people and check tonight. They did a good job.
Very good composure with his structure, tracking pucks, and playing the puck. Really good composure right now.
It is important to have home ice, but we are not done yet. We have to focus on the next one.
