Philadelphia Flyers vs. Montreal Canadiens Game 3 live stream, start time
After an emotional win in Game 2, the Montreal Canadiens will try to grab the series lead against the Philadelphia Flyers in Game 3 on Sunday.
Game 1 saw the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Montreal Canadiens 2-1. But the Canadiens were playing for more in Game 2. Just before Game 2, head coach Claude Julien was hospitalized with chest pains. Energized by this, the Canadiens made their head coach proud, shutting out the Flyers 5-0 in Game 2.
Game 2 was probably the best game of the season for the Canadiens. They’ll need a similar effort to get past the Flyers in Game 3. There’s a good reason why the Flyers were able to grab the top seed in the Eastern Conference and you can be sure they’ll play better in Game 3.
With the series tied at one game each, Game 3 should prove to be a pivotal moment in the series. Whoever wins Game 3 will grab an important 2-1 series lead.
