Dominic Moore seems like an unlikely candidate to serve as the missing piece to the puzzle as the Canadiens battle to earn a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
The Canadiens acquired Moore from the Florida Panthers on Feb. 11 in exchange for a second-round pick at the 2011 NHL entry draft. Montreal is Moore's seventh stop in an NHL career that ironically began at the Bell Centre on Nov. 1, 2003, when the 6-foot, 196-pound centre collected three assists to become the second New York Ranger to score three points in his NHL debut.
But the 29-year-old has fit right in with the Canadiens, providing a veteran's presence and a strong work ethic. He is a dependable faceoff man, and he provided two important goals and an assist as the Canadiens won three games on their recent four-game road trip.
