Rangers vs Canadiens Game 1
Even after the tragic loss of his mother Martin St. Louis smiled as he walked off the ice. With a 7-2 victory last night in Montreal the Rangers have taken away the Canadiens home-ice advantage and won their 4th straight game.”Emotionally, for us, that is something really strong right now,” Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. “I know quite a few of our guys went to the wake (on Friday), and I texted with Marty last night to make sure that everything was good–He’s handled it in an incredible way that probably has helped our team come closer together. (Sunday) is going to be a tough day. We need to be there to support him, and we’ll do that and get ready for Monday.”
The 7-2 crushing defeat for Montreal is their worst loss since 2002.
