It was mostly a no show in the desert as the Canadiens became the first team the last-place-in-the-entire-NHL Arizona Coyotes managed to beat twice this season. The lone bright spot of this one was Gallagher continuing his career season as he notched his 21st. But hey, losing is good now, right?

The Habs headed to the Mile High City on Wednesday night for a Valentine’s Day dance with the Avalanche. While the Canadiens out shot the home team by a considerable margin, they couldn’t get one past Varlamov in a mostly meh encounter in Colorado.
