Danny Briere scored a pair of goals, Ilya Bryzgalov made 23 saves and the Philadelphia Flyers clinched a playoff berth with a 4-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night.
Budaj joins the Canadiens after six seasons in Colorado, where he served as both the lead goalie and backup at various times. He wont be asked to do much more with the Habs than back up Carey Price and give him a break 20-25 times a year. Hes better than the 3.20 GAA he posted in 2010-11 and should show us better numbers with a better defensive team. (Updated 10/4/11)
