Wow, that didn’t take long. 9 seconds in,
Babe Dye converts a quick wrist shot from the slot to give the
Habs a 1-0 lead. He really comes to play!!
Montreal outshoots
Boston 21-2 in the first. This series might not be pretty.
The
Bruins are much better in the 2nd, outshooting
Montreal 14-8, so, maybe I shouldn’t be so quick to judge.
Hib Milks gets a breakaway goal midway through the third period, which is the insurance marker
Montreal didn’t end up needing. The
Habs take game one, 3-0!
No score after the first period of game two. Again
Montreal dominates out of the gate with a 17-4 edge in shots. The
Bruins have now been shutout 4 straight periods in the finals. No scoring in the 2nd period either. Yes,
Montreal is keeping
Boston off the scoreboard, but they aren’t exactly lighting it up!
Babe Dye breaks the deadlock with his 2nd of the series.
Duke Keats adds an insurance marker and
Montreal ends up beating Boston 3-0 for the 2nd straight game!
A scoreless first period of game three has the
Bruins without a goal for 7 periods now! Quite impressive stuff from the
Habs!
Duke Keats scores early in the 2nd, and it’s 1-0
Montreal…Will that be enough? NO, no it wont.
Normie Himes ties it with a seeing eye shot from the left hash marks.
Boston has their first goal of the series to tie the game at 1. The score stays deadlocked though the 2nd, and the 3rd. Overtime is needed…
In OT,
Howie Morenz takes a shot that’s blocked, the rebound goes right back to
Morenz, who buries the back into an open net as a result of the block.
Montreal wins 2-1 and sweeps the Stanley Cup!
