Watch: Canadiens take advantage of Rangers' brutal line change

Adam Hunger-USA TODAY Sports / USA TODAY Sports

The New York Rangers picked the wrong time to make a line change.

The club conducted a full-scale swap late in the first period, allowing Torrey Mitchell and Shea Weber to walk in on a two-on-one, which they executed to perfection.

The strange play also saw a rarity: six skaters on the ice for both sides.

The tally helped the Montreal Canadiens tie the game at one, while the goal was Mitchell's first of the postseason.
