MONCTON, N.B. – February was a great month for the Montreal Canadiens. They played fourteen games and had a record of 9 wins, 2 losses and 3 overtime/shootout losses. Carey Price is the recipient of the Molson Cup for the month of February and Alex Galchenyuk was awarded it for the month of January. After each game, Habs fans can vote for their choices of the three stars of the game. At the end of each month, the player who earned the most votes is awarded the Molson Cup.
I would like to share with you all my choice for the top three Montreal Canadiens stars for the month of February:
1st Star: Max Pacioretty
During the month of February, Pacioretty led the team with 12 points (6 goals and 6 assists). Of those six goals, two of them were scored on the power play. He is currently leading the Canadiens with a total of 16 points (6 goals and 10 assists) in 16 games.
2nd Star: Carey Price
Of the fourteen games the Canadiens played in February, goaltender Carey Price was in the net for eleven of them and had a record of 7 wins, 2 losses and 2 overtime/shootout losses. He also recorded two shutouts.
3rd Star: David Desharnais
Desharnais was the only other player, besides Pacioretty, who produced double figures during the month of February. He earned 10 points (4 goals and 6 assists) including one power play goal. In 20 games played so far this season, he earned a total of 12 points (4 goals and 8 assists).
Honorable Mention: P.K. Subban
Subban tallied 9 points (3 goals and 6 assists) in February. Of those three goals, two of them were recorded on the power play.
I’d love to hear from you. Who’s your Habs three stars for the month of February?
