But they did. You cannot discount that.
Also, Vegas barely got by Minnesota in round one and looked terrible against Colorado in the 1st game, then they got hot. Sounds a lot like Montreal. They're just playing well at the right time, and when you combine that with great goaltending, that will win a lot of playoff games.
I wouldn't be so quick to assume Montreal get's trounced.
