Alex Newhook’s game-winning goal sends Habs to next round of Stanley Cup playoffs
Newfoundland and Labrador’s Alex Newhook scored the game-winning goal in the third period to lift the Montreal Canadiens to a 2-1 victory in Game 7 over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
The Canadiens will now play the Buffalo Sabres in the second round of the playoffs. Newhook’s goal sparked an otherwise anemic Habs offence in a game in which Montreal goalie Jakub Dobes stole the show and the series.
Game 1 of the Canadiens-Sabres series is scheduled for Wednesday.
