Bolduc scores in shootout as the Canadiens outlast the Red Wings 1-0
MONTREAL (AP) --- Zachary Bolduc scored in the sixth round of a shootout, Jacob
Fowler made 30 saves and the Montreal Canadiens beat the Detroit Red Wings 1-0
on Saturday night.
After Bolduc beat Daniil Tarasov through the pads for the first score in the
tiebreaker, Fowler stopped Nate Danielson.
Montreal ended a three-game losing streak to improve to 2-2-1. It won for first
time on home ice in three outings this season.
Fowler had his second career shutout for the Canadiens. The 21-year-old was
making his second straight start for Montreal after being recalled from the
Laval Rocket of the American Hockey League on Wednesday.
Tarasov made 30 saves in his first start for the Red Wings.
Detroit (1-3-1), playing in its first road game of the season, dropped its
second game in two nights after falling 6-3 to the Seattle Kraken on Friday
night.
Cole Caufield's shot 1:16 into the game was deemed not to have crossed the goal
line, while Bolduc's second-period goal was disallowed due to goaltender
interference by Jake Evans on Tarasov. A third apparent Montreal goal, this one
courtesy of Alexandre Texier, was called back for offside midway through
overtime.
In addition to cheering on the home team, Canadiens fans spent much of the game
showing their appreciation for Red Wings forward Dylan Larkin. The crowd
repeatedly broke into chants of "We want Larkin! We want Larkin!" in a bid to
persuade the American to make Montreal his next destination. The former Red
Wings captain requested a trade out of Detroit this past offseason.
