Canadiens Bounce Back with BIG Win vs. Vancouver | Carrier, Habs D Power Offense + Who is Bolduc?

Alex Carrier never had a 2-goal game in his NHL career. On Monday against Vancouver, he scored twice in 20 seconds.

Ian Boisvert and Laura Saba break down the Habs get-right game against the Vancouver Canucks, including Marty St. Louis' gutsy call to swap Noah Dobson in on the powerplay in place of Lane Hutson. Plus, the Habs have the 2nd most points by defensemen in the NHL. While personnel plays into that, the way the Habs play helps their defense generate offense. And finally, Zach Bolduc has struggled to fit on a line in Montreal. After going 11 of his last 12 games without a point, is it time to consider a stint in Laval?
