The Montreal Canadiens are home Thursday night taking on Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals. It's been a very frustrating year in Montreal but the Canadiens are hoping to finish off the year strong.

Pezzetta's a Fighter

Unfortunately the Capitals would score first causing the Canadiens fourth line grinder Michael Pezzetta to try to spark the Canadiens offence by challenging Capitals Big Tom Wilson to a fight.

Unfortunately for Pezzetta that wasn't the best decision as Wilson took this one easily, making many Canadiens fans wish Arber Xhekaj wasn't out with a season ending injury.
