That is indeed a problem. But this team, for whatever reason, seems, with the grace of those very fickle hockey gods, to have an ability to overcome the odds and challenges it faces. Will it continue? Who knows? But if Montreal, without Petry, or a limited Petry, can beat Vegas, then Tampa or the Islanders are clearly doomed and history will look back at this run as being the most improbable of runs since Montreal won in 1971. But that's still a long way off. But as fans, we should enjoy the magic as long as it lasts. And should reality impose its will and the team be eliminated, I would hope that such an eventuality (inevitability?) will not see a cascade of vitriol being hurled against the team's management, players, etc. What they have accomplished with a clearly flawed team has been nothing short of remarkable and such accomplishments should be acknowledged. I, like many posters here, have been critical of Bergevin's management decisions. And nothing that has happened or will happen, will undo the many mistakes that has occurred during his tenure. But if it is appropriate to criticize his mistakes, it is also proper to praise him for his successes, no matter how improbable.
