Here is what Brian Wilde, who covers the Habs for CTV Montreal had to say after last night's game:

"I ask myself if Julien at the trading deadline said to Marc "Marc, we aren't tough enough. My teams don't get intimidated. My teams don't get called soft. Get me some guys who clear guys out; who make all of the guys feel big. And get my goalie some help so he isn't fighting his own battles." I ask this because this Habs team now plays tall, angry and doesn't back down. I've watched that soft underbelly for a lot of years. It's quite a change to see a Phaneuf look in the eyes of Weber and say no thanks, or see traffic around the Price and have five Habs go hard on the Sens near the crease then watch who is winning the intimidation battle. It's a new world watching the Habs play very big."
