Final
Canadiens go for seventh straight win over Bruins
Dec 4, 2006 - 2:40 PM Boston (12-10-2) at Montreal (15-7-3) 7:00 pm ESTMONTREAL (Ticker) -- The outcomes between the Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins have been very one-sided of late.
Winners of five of their last six home games, the Canadiens host the Bruins on Monday.
Montreal owns a six-game winning streak against Boston that includes a 3-2 victory on October 26. Defenseman Andrei Markov scored the go-ahead goal with just 1.2 seconds left on the clock.
Blue-liner Sheldon Souray netted the decisive goal as the Canadiens posted a 4-3 shootout win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. Saku Koivu tallied twice, including the tying power-play goal with 4:36 left in the third period.
Goaltender Cristobal Huet made 36 saves and rookie Guillaume Latendresse had two assists for Montreal, which went 1-for-4 with the man advantage.
The Bruins had their three-game winning streak ended following a 5-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. Shean Donovan and defenseman Brad Stuart both tallied for Boston, which was outshot, 30-19.
Netminder Tim Thomas turned away 25 shots for the Bruins, who went 0-for-5 on the power play.
