Most deserving team won! Well, after a great season full of good surprises, Habs get eliminated by Philly's big bad Flyers. Some are shocked, other disappointed but bottom line is the most DESERVING (and not best) team won..
A lot of Montreal fans are really happy and exited to see their team past the 1st round of the 2008 playoffs but it seems every time they lose a game or have a bad outing fans bash the team they were praising the day before...
Flyers Vs. Canadiens & Fan Rant.... After both teams went the distance in their 1st round series nobody really has the advantage in which team is more rested. So many young players, So many veterans,
Habs beat Bruins, wait on Flyers + Caps So Montreal closed out game 7 with their best game of the series. After being outplayed by Boston for 5 consecutive games, les Canadiens came out hard in game 7 and the better team won. Now we wait for a game 7 between Philly and Washington to determine who's facing who.
Mr. Gainey: The Gambler or Smartest Man in Hockey Robert Michael "Bob" Gainey, is arguably the best GM in hockey right now. Unquestionably the best GM The Habbies have had since Mr. Sam Pollock, God rest his soul.
As USA Today has said before, The Montreal Canadiens impact player happens to be in their Head Office.
Montreal & Boston just finished playing 3 games in 4 nights and despite the players being bumped, bruised and exhausted they still managed to put on a show.
Montreal leads the series 2-1 but haven’t been dominating like everyone thought.....
Time to shed the label If you're a Hab fan, you know there's a myth out there that the Habs are a soft team. It is fair to say that this team carried the label for the past 15 years and rightfully so, they were often the push-around team for the Bruins and Flyers of that world. The problem is, a lot of non-Hab fans and even some hab fans still maintain they are a "soft" team.
Blessing in Disguise? Everyone was praising the Montreal Canadiens because they were one of the healthiest team in the NHL. Since March its seems as if they were dropping like flies...
