They were 18th out of 31 teams. I suppose they have a chance, would be the biggest upset in NHL history though IMO.

I wouldn't go that far.
For the Habs regular season, Price was injured all season and was very mediocre. The Oilers concussed him and he had the last month of the season off to finally take care of those nagging injuries.
Ben Chiarot was out over a month with a broken hand from a stupid fight.
Weber finished the regular season missing a bunch of games and was in a cast.
Gallagher broke his thumb and missed a ton of time.
All of those guys are healthy and back in the lineup. This team isn't as bad as their regular season record shows.
