Habs Could Be Playoff Bound

[LastWordArmy]

the leader of the country south of us says we could all be hunkered down until July- Aug....so bye to Nhl ...

There was just a little bit of sarcasm in my post... just a little bit.

The playoff spot is necessarily deserved if the same rules apply to every team.

It's an issue if some of the trash teams move up a round or 2 or even further. How will that affect the lottery? It would be a miscarriage of good sense if they got to an actual 7 game round and kept their initial lottery pick.

I don't like it regardless.

If they can win 3 games, then they deserve to go to game 7.

Unless I'm mistaken, those early games are single games. One loss and you're out.

 

[Phil Parent]

You know what, the NHL probably would want Montreal, New York and Chicago in the Stanley Cup playoffs once play resumes so... yeah.

 

[jaffy27]

Bring on the Sabres!

Watch the Sens and Sharks both win and Ottawa picks out of the top 10 with both picks

The best case scenario is that the Habs both win the Stanley Cup and the draft lottery.

"Once you make the playoffs because of a virus, anything can happen".

I legit laughed out loud at this.

NHL starts up again in June. Montreal is healed. Price is rested. Tatar & Mete are back. We ride Price and our season opening energy all the way to the Stanley Cup!

 

[Habs Icing]

NBA is saying the best case scenario is a mid to late June start. If the NHL goes ahead with the playoffs, there is no way they can allow 24 teams in if they want to finish before August.

You mean finish a day before the start of the new season.

I see you took a few seminars at the Marc Bergevin School of Highly Unrealistic Optimism.

The world has become depressing. Let me have my fantasy!

May Headline: Bergevin Led Habs Make 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs.


July Headline: Habs win 25th Stanley Cup, Bergevin becomes first ever GM to win the Conn Smythe.

And "driiiiiiiiiiiiing driiiiiiiiiiiiing" you wake up.

If you made a poll in this section with 2 options:

Option 1: Habs win both Stanley Cup and draft Lottery in 2020, and extend Bergevin 5 more years

Option 2: Habs win neither, and fire Bergevin

I'd guess option 2 wins with at least ~80% of the vote. What do you think?

I think that option #1 would win with a very large majority.

Option 1. Hate for Bergevin does not trump a cup and a draft lottery win.

Yes, the more teams, the more travel, the more chance to spread germs!

 

[George Lebay]

It's over folks. 20-21 season probably won't even start in time..

 

[BLONG7]

In all reality they have already talked about the new season starting on time, hopefully. Don't see how they can have the playoffs even at this point.

Neither are plausible unfortunately

Option 1 wins easily. I hate MB with a passion and would vote 1.

Sometimes I have the feeling that some fans don't even want to win. They'd rather lose for years and years and stockpile high picks. And that's not always a surefire recipe.

The Cup AND Lafrenière? I mean, you have #25 for sure, and a franchise player to build around. I'd take that and endure Bergevin for a few more years.

That's right, and you could always fire him sooner than later.

Not so sure about a Cup for sure...............The Oilers have had a ton of #1 picks, and nothing.............yet.
