"They were a very good team. We knew it would be a battle, and I thought we did a good job of fighting back there twice," continued Weber. "Obviously we dug ourselves into a bit of a hole, but we showed character coming back. It was definitely a tough bounce at the end."
MILESTONE MAN
That bad bounce spoiled what was otherwise shaping up to be a memorable night for Weber.
Playing in his 100th game with the Canadiens, the 13-year NHL veteran registered his 500th career point with his fifth goal of the season, at 17:04 in the second.
Then at 6:34 in the final frame, he registered his 501st, in the form of a third-period equalizer.
Both came off of face-offs, with assists from Andrew Shaw.
