Canadiens' Tomas Plekanec: Sets up teammates twice in win

Plekanec registered two helpers -- one on the power play -- and four shots on goal during Thursday's 5-2 victory against the Coyotes.

Analysis:

Plekanec has been a staple for Montreal -- he's now in his 13th season with the franchise. The 33-year-old is an iron man, and with points in two of four games to start the year, he's off to another solid start. The center is cemented on the top six and figures to be a consistent threat with the puck. While he had just 14 goals last year, Plekanec has reached 20-plus in seven campaigns and isn't afraid to set up his teammates either.
