Habs are hapless. - Author: Cathy Squires - Tags: Game Coverage ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/Gb-zWyzbYAA5lRO-1-.jpg) ### First Period > Pacioretty re-introduces himself [pic.twitter.com/KSMFpeqHtm](https://t.co/KSMFpeqHtm?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855405728703316379?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > Knies lol [pic.twitter.com/obg0pfBe1C](https://t.co/obg0pfBe1C?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855408937773711541?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > Savard caught Domi in the mid-section [pic.twitter.com/VBX8kPGExu](https://t.co/VBX8kPGExu?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855411654055317944?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) The ref did not catch Savard at all. > Timmins spins off Anderson and walks in > > Timmins from Benoit and Reaves [pic.twitter.com/JrL4dG48KR](https://t.co/JrL4dG48KR?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855412356177616961?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > hopefully it's nothing serious > > Pacioretty needed help getting to the dressing room at the end of the period [pic.twitter.com/f1nMiAPnlD](https://t.co/f1nMiAPnlD?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855416511084847491?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) No penalties in the period, Corsi was 17-16 for Montréal, and the score was 1-0 Leafs. Top line very quiet, with the Tavares line and the fourth line in on most of the real action. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/20242025-20227-5v5.png) Bit misleading because the Leafs blocked a lot and the Habs missed a lot. ### Second Period > Guhle is called for holding [pic.twitter.com/OtNdRoaEiD](https://t.co/OtNdRoaEiD?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855421517649105014?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > Nylander cut through the Habs' PK like butter [pic.twitter.com/gZktic9tyK](https://t.co/gZktic9tyK?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855422172908368314?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > shoot that Max [pic.twitter.com/9EnKFMMk2g](https://t.co/9EnKFMMk2g?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855423259266998740?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Jake McCabe took an interference penalty, and this was the pair of results: > MITCH MARNER 🚨 > > SHORTHANDED GOAL!

Max Domi got into it with David Savard – shockingly, he had to get revenge. Refs called it roughing for both of them. Leafs peppered Montembeault at four-on-four, but he had rediscovered his save everything amulet. And eventful second period ended with the Leafs leading 4-1\. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/20242025-20227-cfdiff-all.png) Montréal has the puck more, but Toronto is doing more with it on the power play. Not the greatest five-on-five game the Leafs have ever played, but lots of high-danger shooting on special teams. ### Third Period > Knies caught Slafkovsky on the tracks [pic.twitter.com/WQylhYpjmX](https://t.co/WQylhYpjmX?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855435876131602850?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Leafs let the Canadiens have the puck for the first half of the third. They didn't do much with it. > Mitch Marner > > where soccer meets hockey [pic.twitter.com/mjykZVaMet](https://t.co/mjykZVaMet?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855439277191991604?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Pontus Holmberg ran into Montembeault during a play and Alex Newhook went for him hard enough to take the only penalty. > Benoit finds Holmberg > > Holmberg collides with Montembault afterwards [pic.twitter.com/TsqTbldWrG](https://t.co/TsqTbldWrG?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855440336706777570?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Max Domi shot the puck on a rush! > Domi's shot squeaks through Montembault [pic.twitter.com/iQH6PlPeJf](https://t.co/iQH6PlPeJf?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 10, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1855441441566183643?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) With other guys in range! Suddenly the Leafs pinned the Canadiens in their end for two minutes, like they remembered how to play with the puck. **Leafs win 4-1.** See you Tuesday for a home game vs Ottawa. Don't expect word on Max Pacioretty before Monday.
