It doesnt hurt that they have star goaltender Carey Price getting some early season rust off now, too.Price stopped 19 shots in his second start, and Brendan Gallagher and Phillip Danault each had second-period goals Saturday night to lift the Canadiens to a 4-2 win over the Boston Bruins.Price, playing just his second game after a bout with the flu at the start of the season, missed most of last season with a right knee injury. He won his season debut, stopping 27 shots against Arizona on Thursday.Its always good to get minutes in, good quality minutes, Price said.

The Canadiens had two players in the box for the final 56 seconds.After a scoreless first period that saw Montreal hold a 13-6 edge in shots on goal, the Canadiens jumped ahead 1-0 midway into the second on Gallaghers goal. He took a pass from Max Pacioretty and one-timed a shot from the right circle that slipped into the net just inside the left post.Montreal made it 2-0 late in the period when Danault took Alexander Radulovs cross-ice pass and slipped a short wrist shot over Khudobins right shoulder.Moores score came on Bostons first shot of the third when he worked a give-and-go with Tim Schaller before slipping a wrister past Price from the slot, but Byron scored on a breakaway just less than two minutes later.But, still on the power play, Spooner scored with just less than 13 minutes remaining in regulation.Mitchell scored an unassisted goal, stealing the puck near the faceoff circle and slapping it one-handed into the net.
