Gallagher scores late winner after turnover, Canadiens edge Blues 3-2
MONTREAL — Claude Julien doesn’t want his team to get overconfident after a surprisingly strong start to the season.
The Montreal Canadiens won their third game in a row and improved to 4-1-1 after defeating the St. Louis Blues 3-2 on Wednesday night.
Julien’s men are well ahead of last year’s pace, when they needed 12 games to earn their first nine points of the season, compared to six games this year.
“Right now I’m not proud of anything because it’s only six games,” said Julien. “I’m glad with the way things are going but there’s no reason to get carried away with where we are right now. There’s still lots to accomplish.
