Some players are simply on fire right now, one quickly thinks of Cole Caufield, but it should also be mentioned that Jeff Petry's game is becoming as solid as it has been in the last four seasons. But there is one element that has eluded Canadiens supporters in the last two games and which was mentioned by a journalist from TVA Sports.
Marc-André Perreault pointed out to Jean-Philippe Bertrand, during the podcast La Dose on the TVA Sports.ca website, that Petry's playing time on the power play was practically non-existent.
And during last Thursday night's game in Calgary, it's a total of 40 seconds that the number 26 of the Canadians spent on the ice during the power plays of his team.
Meanwhile, it was another Habs defender who took advantage, a certain Ben Chiarot.
Is it a Canadians strategy to highlight and showcase Chiarot and Lehkonen by March 21?
This is quite possible, as both players are part of many trade rumors and according to Perreault, Kent Hughes has every interest in increasing the value of his two players until the trade deadline.
