Current lineup I would say 1.
If we get Price and Gallagher back I think they probably pull 2 out of their asses.

2 games in which the team gasses itself playing the perfect games, leaving no juice left for the other games

How many powerplays will the refs gift the leafs? Old school playoff hockey? Habs take 2 and could even possibly win the series.
But we know Bettman wants storylines so better believe refs will stiffle all momentum Habs get with the whistle. Leafs vs Oil conference finals book it

I know that Habs will be better than what we have seen lately but I wonder how much better. Key issues that will hold us back..
1) Faceoffs. We have to win more key faceoffs.
2) Puck possession movers. Only guy we got is Petry
3) PP and PK. Needs to be much better.
4) Shooting when we are in shooting areas. Stop trying to look for pass first.
5) Puck battles and winning the war in the trenches. We struggled at this for the majority of the season. Toffoli and Anderson helped but it's still an issue
6) Turnovers in our own end once we get possession. We need to spread out our forwards and keep it simple cause we lack puck possession beasts. Chip the puck out and have a forward going after their D. This will cause havoc but if no player is there cause they are cluttered in our own end, it won't work other than chipping it out.... Therrien system

Habs will be better and take 2 games.
Campbell the biggest factor is the series though....He's been real good since he joined the Leafs but what kind of pressure goalie is he ? If he plays really good the Leafs will be hard for anyone to beat.

Depends on when they start, if this team can get 5-6 days off before they start they can be competitive even with Toronto assuming Price Gally and weber are back and reasonably healthy. The time off will do Weber a world of good, he will be effective for 8-10 games at least

I just want the match-up to be confirmed so I can go have fun with Leafs fans on the playoffs board and talk up this shit team. Might as well have some fun before getting stomped.

The one potential lopsided advantage the Habs would be in goal - a healthy Price, who’s been through the trails & tribulations of post season / key hockey tourneys should be a significant advantage over Campbell who’s never had to shoulder the pressure of playoffs - and he’s let in lots of softies recently down the stretch, and Andersen has been avg-to-mediocre in the past playoffs.
I’ll go with Price’s performance last 25GP in playoffs until proven otherwise..
Will be interesting to watch play out...

Out of whose asses? Our own or the Leafs.
And what if we get back also Danault and Weber? Will it be 3 games?
And what if Ducharme has time to run a mini training camp between now and the start of the playoffs? Will it be 4.
And what if Drouin comes back? Will we lose in 4 games?

I hope I'm wrong and you're right but I think Price won't be much better than Allen.
