Last Thursday saw former Notre Dame hockey player Jake Evans make his NHL debut for the Montreal Canadiens.
He didn’t score any points but “did all the little things right” according to those who watched the Canadiens victory over the Ducks.
Fast forward just a few nights and now Evans has his first career NHL goal.
Save that puck!

Despite the efforts of Evans, the Canadiens still fell to the Arizona Coyotes on Monday night.
