I don’t think they will beat Tampa but I think they have what it takes.

I also think there’s an argument to be made that Montreal has better coaching and structure, which is reflected in their underlying metrics.

The Habs' top 4 scorers have 229 points combined. The Lightning's have 358. Going to take more than coaching and structure to compensate for that kind of talent disparity. Maybe if Price had the series of his life and Vasi sucked but even then it'd be a stretch. Bolts in 5 would be my prediction, much like it was when they played the Devils last year.

How does Panarin look so far in this game? All zeros on the box score so far. Obviously he is a super star but this is the type of game that he should step up and dominate. If I were looking to give him 7 years x $10+M this offseason - I'd be watching his performance today.

He has been MIA since Torts said "Bread has shit his pants and is sick as a dog". Happened over a month ago.

This line went viral in the russian press and Bread has been playing very poorly since then.

All four goals scored by defenseman in the Habs-CBJ game

None of them by Mete

This game is heating up. What a snag by Price.

Every time he's about to take a shot he's worried about losing control.

 

[Pia8988]

And Panarin scores.

 

[bukwas]

Struggling or not, you can't forget about Panarin.

 

[CupInSIX]

Every time he's about to take a shot he's worried about losing control.

And he lets one go!

Breadman with the shattrick.

 

[The Macho King]

Btw what happened to Wennberg? He seems to have stagnated.

 

[The Macho King]

And he lets one go!

Breadman with the shattrick.

You can always change your pants.

 

[MapleLeafs9]

Habs are falling apart

 

[CupInSIX]

You can always change your pants.

The question is: would you want to? Athletes are superstitious.

 

[Woodrow]

I'm annoyed that the Habs vs Jackets game is blacked out in my region. You suck TSN!

Can't they UN-blackout important games like this for their subscribers once in a while?

TSN didn't make up the blackout rules. These rules are made by the NHL and their teams and then TSN bought the rights to the games with these rules. It is the NHL and their teams that suck! I do agree that blackouts are pretty dumb especially in Canada where every Canadian team game could easily be broadcast nationally.

Habs team D taking a nap.

Agreed. This game really could be a national broadcast.

 

[kingsholygrail]

It's basically between these two teams for that last slot. Playoff atmosphere.

 

[Hennessy]

Montreal grateful for intermission at this point.

 

[bukwas]

Huberdeau, Barkov and Dadonov git'n er done as usual.

 

[Cellee]

Too much Dreger on TSN

 

[Cynick]

WHOA! Let's talk about that Nilsson save.

 

[bukwas]

Big Juicy rebound after an awful turnover.

 

[Deen]

Who wears the full cage on Edmonton?

 

[3074326]

I remember the last time Nash scored a big goal to push the Jackets into the playoffs.

Wait

 

[KJoe88]

Go Jackets Go
