Semifinals: Montreal Canadiens vs. Vegas Golden Knights | Canadiens lead 3-2

Go Vegas!!

Lehner will start game 5. MAF needed a rest after the long Colorado series anyway, and his brainfart in game 3 created an opportunity for that rest in game 4. DeBoer also likes to ride goalies as long as they are winning, and Lehner is prone to be streakish. Finally, it seems like the Habs tend to struggle against bigger goalies. My $0.02.

I don't know how to find team specific stats like these. What are Lehner's stats against the Habs?

Wooooooo can't wait for Thursday

It doesn't matter how the series ends, win or lose I'm so f***ing proud of the Habs. Humiliating the Leafs and the Jets and being able to compete against Vegas is something no one could've predicted.

Every Habs fan I know didn't believe in this team. Every Habs fan I know had stopped caring for the Habs. Every Habs fan I know wanted this team and the management to be changed to the core.

Yet here we are, winning the semifinals 3-2 against one of the Cup favorites and making their fans boo them at home.

Incredible. Amazing.

You need to hang out with better habs fans.

Ha, ha, impressive win, showes how much Vegas needs the refs to win, it might be just a slight advantage but ony original 6 teams can beat them, an even then they have overcome the refs, it’s a fundamental mistake by the nhl, correlation does not mean causation

 

[caufieldbeerman]

As I said our line up as proven winners from team Canada à la Eric Staal , Corey Perry , Carey Price ( only need a cup ) and Shea Weber (only need a cup ). Those guys are all Captain Materials and will take care of the young fellas ..

Thanks Vegas btw for Suzuki because he is playing like good old crosby actually and sorry but you guys don't have a caufield type of guy this young kid is killing you in that series haha


Prédiction : 4-2 habs in mtl for game 6

 

[YearsintheWilderness]

Is it still 3500 fans for the Habs?

Even if they can't get more, the Habs' 3500 give the Vegas full house a run for its money.

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

hope I can see a cup win with my dad for the first time. Something us fans will cherish forever

Stone had the best seat for Caufield's goal. He even had time to buy a beer and two hot dogs.

no hustle from Stone, but I'm not sure he could have done much there

 

[Kojo]

He's not a fast skater but he could have kept his legs moving and battle for the puck against Caufield.

You can’t play the game at a higher level than Montreal is playing at right now.

He surely could have done something. He just came gliding.

How is Stone not a fast skater?

He was coasting

 

[Captain97]

How is Stone not a fast skater?

He's well known as a slow skater

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

How is Stone not a fast skater?

...he's not a speed demon, but he can motor hard for short bursts...

It is a very unique opportunity to qualify for the finals for the first time in 28 years on Québec's national holiday when this holiday is in the summer. No way Mtl loses Game 6. They simply cannot. This one is going into the history books.
