Canadiens’ Silent Struggle: What Fowler’s Next Move Could Mean for Their Future
Tuesday night’s humiliating defeat was the final drop in the bucket; this latest debacle might just have been the Montreal Canadiens sending out an SOS, much like The Police sang in 1975, and GM Kent Hughes heard it loud and clear. Minutes after the final buzzer, the team announced it had recalled three players from the Laval Rocket: defenseman Adam Engstrom, who was with the Habs in their latest road trip, forward Owen Beck, and, for the first time, goaltender Jacob Fowler.
Plenty has been written about the Canadiens’ goaltending struggles in the last month, but on Tuesday night, the situation reached a breaking point. The Tampa Bay Lightning took only 27 shots on goal, but they still scored six goals. Jakub Dobes, who started the game, gave up three goals on 14 shots.
