we forget that the Caps goaltending in that Montreal series was average to poor on top of the Halak issue. in the 3 losses, Varly allowed early soft goals that just set the Habs up to play Hunter hockey. The Caps win that series easy if they just got a little goaltending.
I would certainly have not have allowed the team to get turned upside down because of that series. IIRC both 8 and 19 took that loss hard and it had an effect on their attitude to start the next season.
