Subban after Game 4 win: 'I think Bishop has kind of been sitting on a horseshoe'
Shots fired.
The Montreal Canadiens dropped six goals on the Tampa Bay Lightning in Thursday's Game 4 victory, three each on starter Ben Bishop and backup Andrei Vasilevskiy.
If P.K. Subban's postgame comments are any indication, the Habs believe they can repeat the offensive onslaught in Game 5.
"I think Bishop has kind of been sitting on a horseshoe there," Subban told reporters.
Entering Thursday, Bishop had stopped 100-of-104 shots in the series. However, the three goals on 14 shots he allowed Thursday - including a soft one that led to his exit - proved to the Canadiens that Bishop can be beat, even if head coach Michel Therrien wasn't quite ready to add to the bulletin-board material.
