Canadiens' Max Pacioretty unleashes one-liner following Game 5
Kim Klement / USA TODAY Sports
Whether it's the witching work of well-positioned horseshoes or plain old misfortune, the Montreal Canadiens have clanged puck off iron with a measure of consistency in their second-round series with the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Though it's terribly frustrating to beat the goaltender only to have a shot immediately dismissed by an obnoxious ping, it's easy to joke about after a win - and a big one, at that.
Cue Canadiens' forward Max Pacioretty, who slipped a high-grade dad joke into conversation with reporters following the Game 5 triumph.
Great quote last night from #Habs Max Pacioretty: “They may have to get new nets because we’re wearing out the posts.” #HabsIO
