Byron’s run at New Jersey’s Kyle Palmieri for an interference penalty while the Canadiens were skating 6-on-5 and trying to tie the game—and the scowl he wore on his face as the dressing room opened and he scurried by reporters to make his way to the trainers’ table for treatment—was a prime example of it. They knew where this game slipped out of their grasp. “You can’t win at this time of year if you’re not ready to play from the start,” said Julien.
