The Montreal Canadiens dominated the Philadelphia Flyers to open Game 2 at the 2020 Stanley Cup championship on August 14. From there, the Flyers never really returned and the Canadiens cruised to a dominant 5-0 game 2 win to tie the series 1-1. Game 3 of Round 1 will be played on August 16, 2020. Here's all you need to know about the upcoming game.

Montreal Canadiens Preview

The Canadiens shocked hockey fans when they knocked off Pittsburg Penguins. But later, they surely ran into a goalkeeper even faster than Carey Price on their way to a 2-1 loss in Game 1 of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs against the Flyers. Later, in the Friday, August 14, game the tables got turned and the Flyers failed to perform well leading to the victory of the Canadiens. 

Philadelphia Flyers Preview

Even though the Flyers performed well in Game 1 and defeated the Canadiens, ( Wednesday, August 12: Philadelphia 2, Montreal 1)  they failed to perform in the second game as it took almost the entire first period for the Flyers to merely earn a shot on goal. By then, the Canadiens were already up 2-0. Splitting up the Shayne Gostisbehere and Justin Braun pairing was a major mistake by the Flyers.Gostisbehere struggled in getting in the form leading to a poor performance by the team in the second game. Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere said after their first win, "They just played a big series, big win, they were underdogs there," and "They're a good team. You can't take anyone lightly in this league. You've got to be ready at the drop of the puck. I think for us it's a good matchup and it'll be a fun series." After their first win, Philadelphia coach Alain Vigneault said. “It’s what we expected,”

Who will win

There is no doubt that the Montreal Canadiens have performed really well till now but we should not forget that Flyers went a perfect 3-0 during the round-robin portion of the 2020 NHL Stanley Cup Qualifiers to earn the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference. But, the Canadiens surely have a huge positive side as they have Corsi and Fenwick, who could help in grabbing more scores. So the Canadiens might have a higher chance to win the third game.
