Alex Galchenyuk had an open net waiting for him after a beautiful passing play by his Montreal Canadiens teammates fooled Carolina Hurricanes netminder Cam Ward in the second period of Tuesday's game.
Andrei Markov gained the zone and turned back in the slot, sending the puck to Max Pacioretty. Pacioretty wasted no time finding Galchenyuk's stick while Ward was still moving the other way, leading to Montreal's second goal of the contest.
