Why The Canadiens Should Win this Series
It should be said that the Maroons is a solid team.The reason I think the Canadiens should win is that they have even fewer and smaller weaknesses, and not because the Maroons is a weak team.
1) Coaching - Arbour will crush Laviolette.This is made worst by the fact that the Canadiens is not a team that you can beat by "matching up" against because the talent is distributed (more than the average team).
2) Stronger defense, and especially stronger defensemen to control the flow of the game and thus transition.More physical too.The Canadiens have a stronger 1st and 2nd pairing.
3) Doug Harvey - Subset of 2), but still important enough to deserve a category on his own.The Maroons have no #1 defenseman, and this is their biggest weakness (along with coaching), whereas Montreal have the 2nd best defenseman of all-time.
4) The Canadiens is one of the only team with a comparable center line to the Maroons.This cancels an advantage both teams usually have.
5) Special Units - I feel like the Canadiens have superior special units overall.
