It's funny cuz it's true. This is EXACTLY the type of talk we had for a week.
I don't know anybody that felt confident with this series after game 2. Hell, I bet even
@Scotto74 was leaning to the pessimism!
Looking at the Habs lineup I remember being legitimately concerned about this matchup for the next few years. Cammalleri, Kostitsyn, Wisniewski, Subban, Price, Turtlenec, Pacioretty, Weber, Desharnais, hell I thought they'd eventually get lucky with Pouliot against us too. All these players for whatever reason either torched Boston or I had a sneaking suspicion that they always would.
This series really felt started to feel special in games 4 and 5 though. I don't know if I can bear to watch them all the way through again, for the sake of curbing my anxiety.
