The difference I see with the Leafs now is defensively. They have been able to score forever but now they can lock it down, even with average goaltending.
Unless I mssed it, the Habs don`t have someome to specifically work with the young centres. One defensive zone draw last night and that was the game. I know the Leafs had Manny Malhotra working with their centres.
Thought the Habs played well overall last night and still lost. The margin for error in the playoffs is usually small. To have any chance, believe they will need to win game one (as they did against the Pens last summer) and build off of that. Believe they will need all hands on deck to have a chance, including Danault who was missed last night.
