After a long wait, Montreal Canadiens' Jeff Petry finally got to reunite with his family Tuesday in Columbus. It put a little extra pep in his step for Wednesday's game. (EricEngels)
They lost 5-1 to the Columbus Blue Jackets and failed to generate much of anything that would’ve given them a more respectable result, but he finished the game with an assist and helped the Canadiens generate 66 per cent of the expected goals while he was on the ice at 5-on-5.
But they knew it was unlikely a trade would materialize and that it was probable they’d be apart for upwards of three-and-half months.“We know we made the best one for OUR family,” Julie wrote in an Instagram post on Jan 10.
They were able to see each other for a few days in Florida over the NHL’s February All-Star break but, with Jeff back on a loaded Canadiens schedule and Julie further along in her pregnancy and looking after their boys, getting to see each other proved too challenging. But on Tuesday, Julie and the kids packed up the car and made the three-and-a-half-hour drive to Columbus.
