Pens are in for a very difficult series. The Habs have proven themselves to be a tough and resilient roster taking out the #1 and #3 Teams in the east, while the Pens have defeated the #4 and #7 teams.
The Habs have McDavid, who comes in with a chip on his shoulder, after being traded from the Pens early in the season along with Brendan Gallagher who also had some time manning the right side in the Pen.
The Pens have Mikko Rantanen who came over from the Habs mid way through the season and
a powerful Defence who did not allow a PP goal in 10 straight matches while playing strong team D on special teams. Penalty trouble could put Montreal in a big hole if they arent careful.
The goalies are all strong, with Rask vs Price a prime time matchup.
