December is always a big month for young prospects. Those that are junior aged are vying for spots at the World Juniors and the Habs had no fewer than six players suit up for their countries.
It was a reversal of recent fortune for the Habs. They managed to score some goals but the defence and goaltending struggled, resulting in a pair of OT losses sandwiching a win.
The round robin portion of the 2014 World Juniors has come to an end with all six Hab prospects moving on to the medal round.
The Habs’ recent woes continue but they were able to squeak out a win over a pair of weekend games to keep pace in the Atlantic.
The 2014 World Juniors will be taking place from December 26th through January 5th.
It may not have been pretty but the Habs managed to pull out a pair of victories against the West before heading into an extended Christmas break to keep them in the hunt for the lead in the Atlantic.
The scoring well has dried up for the Habs as a lack of offence proved costly en route to losing three of four games this past week.
Trade discussion is always an area that gets people talking, no matter what time of year it is.
The month of November sees an almost entirely new set of prospects rise to the top in our monthly 3-Stars.
