WINNIPEG, Manitoba ó The NHL returned to Winnipeg with a cold reminder of the challenge that lies ahead.
Carey Price stopped 30 shots and the Montreal Canadiens put a damper on a massive celebration with a 5-1 victory over the Jets on Sunday.
The return of big-league hockey to the city had fans celebrating in the streets hours before the puck was dropped. But that changed in a hurry with a sloppy game.
Mike Cammalleri, Tomas Plekanec, Yannick Weber, Travis Moen and Max Pacioretty scored for Montreal.
