I was merely showing how incorrect that claim was....from this very thread.

I called out no one about anything.

Jeezuz.

The habs might literally be the worst team to win the cup.

But good for them for getting things done.

I don't like cheering for other Canadian teams but it's kind of hard not to cheer slightly for the underdogs in this series as I despise Vegas. I'm still hoping for an Isles Cup win at this point but I can't say I'd be too upset if the unthinkable happens and the Habs take it all. I just really don't want Vegas or TB to win at all.

Nobody knows. That is what makes the SC playoffs so entertaining, as well as making the Stanley Cup the toughest major sport trophy to win.

Don’t believe me ? The Blues first Cup... The Kings first Cup...

Anything can happen in the playoffs.

I think I have been wrong on every playoff series prediction I have made this year.

Edmonton winnipeg (guessed edmonton)
Toronto montreal (guessed toronto)
Winnipeg montreal (guessed winnipeg)
Colorado vegas (guessed colorado)

Just goes to show how razor thin the difference is between top and bottom teams.

I think that's Montreal's overall strategy.

We will see, my money would certainly be on Tampa

I think Tampa would kill Vegas let alone Montreal

Injuries are also an unknown...seems to me like its 3-0 Vegas right now if they have their #1 center

These things are different

The MAF gift is like a belated birthday gift after the gift Staal gave Vegas.

Crossbars are as good as posts and shots wide

Totally agree, Price has assembled a highlight reel worthy playoffs

The refs must be sad, all their hard work was ruined haha

Montreal's deal with Satan working out quite well IMO.

I love it, it's part of what makes sports the best. David vs. Goliath, the drama of watching an 8th seed take down the reigning cup champs. Conventional wisdom vs. Life. Nothing is certain.
Unfortunately, that’s the reasoning that keeps the Flames mired in mediocrity.
