The one that is clearly not good enough to win a Cup will. Might as well be the Leafs playing tonight.

Toronto would be going apepoop to have a chance to be the sacrificial lamb to the west winner.

One pile of poop had to smell worse than the other. What was the reason the Habs went out first round last year against Ottawa? A healthy Price?

Cinderella runs happen. Enjoy it. Just remember midnight will come eventually.

The Laffs midnight always comes about an hour early.

unfortunately, the Leafs aren't even good enough to make the post-season.
Which, is sad, if you ask me.

That Boston series last spring was glorious.

It sure was. As glorious as the Habs spring this year. Both had the same result. No Cups. Glorious.

Game 7 was my fav game of the last decade.

Oh so if you don't win the Cup, all is lost?

so u would rather get a better draft pick than watch the Leafs play at least 16 playoff games?

i thought you beat tampa cause they scored goals, that for some odd reason didn't count

I just wanted to rattle the Hab cages.

They'll poop on their team better than me when this series is over. Fakers gonna fake, but only for so long.

maybe a few guys like Gionta etc but the core of the team is strong going forward. They have done as best as Habs fans could have hoped for.

I see it as a great experience for the younger players on the team, and a good opportunity for management to determine what needs to be tweaked on the roster.

We said that last year too.

Hey enjoy the run. Kudos to the Habs. But don't take the slippers off Cinderella and call her fabulous.

Something must be done right here...

not a cinderella run. Way different than 2010. They will be back next year in the playoffs for sure. The east is pretty weak. Boston is getting old, pitt sucks. East is up for grabs.

yep and East is wide open next year too. Habs could easily go to C. Finals again.

Exactly. Reality eventually sets in. Don't be mislead. Hot hockey doesn't mean perenial winner.
