Semifinals: Montreal Canadiens vs. Vegas Golden Knights | Series Tied 1-1

[HanSolo]

Also as a total aside, I almost bit the bullet on tickets for Game 5 but held off.

Definitely gonna scoop some tickets for one of games 1 or 2. Not sure when I'll ever see an East-West semifinal again.

Easy for Vegas.....5 or 6 games....Montreal faces an elite team for the first time in these playoffs.....

Habs will be lucky to win a game

craig button, is that you?

 

[I am not exposed]

The Knights are going to be the Flyers to this Habs team.

Beat me to it!

 

[BruinsFan37]

On paper it's Vegas -- by alot.

But the way this playoffs are going I wouldn't be shocked if Montreal wins either.

Hopefully games 2 and 3 are back to back

Sucks for Montreal their building will be mostly empty, they would have gotten a huge boost from a full crowd.

Vegas in 5.

What?
Minnesota had 75pts and was +21 during the regular season
Montreal had 59pts and was a -9
So Minnesota was a much better team then the Habs were buddy

Leafs fans were also using regular season stats.

Habs still living rent free in Canadian fans head huh?

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Do I vote with my heart here?

Or do I vote with my head?

This season you mean

Vegas winning this in 4 or 5 may be detrimental to their finals chances. I do not think they beat NYI or TPA anyway but this is a dangerous series in that it can lull them into a non competitive mode and then they could have a week off which will amplify the problem

Yes cause making it top 4 in the playoffs sure does lull teams into no longer playing hockey....

don’t sleep on the Habs. Bergevin is a god and Price will lead the way. Habs in 7

 

[hockeyfan2k18]

Habs come falling back down to earth.

 

[CanadienShark]

Let's go Montreal. f*** Vegas!

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Let's hope Fleury chokes knowing the entire province wants him to.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Vegas in 4. MAF has always been good against MTL.

Nope, he's under .900% against the Habs.

I wonder which refereeing we will see for this series. The North division series have been reffed more severely than in the regular season, while in the VGK-COL series nothing was called. This will have a big impact on the end result IMO.

Montreal in 6

Price is the best player left in the playoffs and he will prove it. Meanwhile upfront Montreal plays like a monolithic block of structured defense.

 

[Halakitlikethat]

Also we have seen Vegas get “goalied” in the playoffs before , against Dallas last year and even Vancouver , they had a real hard time scoring .
