Montreal's last win of the playoffs.

So the Habs play the winner of the TB/Carolina series correct?

 

[Gallagbi]

we are such a polite bunch. A similar post like this over there would result in a few pages of Nostrils and Dumbass memes as they would so eloquently put it.

Who cares?

dude it’s all in fun. Why so grumpy

Colorado/Vegas.

Boston/NY get winner of Carolina/Tampa

Because I don't care about the Oilers. They're done, eliminated, just like our group. This loss doesn't make them worse, just like it doesn't make ours better.

Colorado/Vegas.

Boston/NY get winner of Carolina/Tampa

holy crap! Yeah good luck Habs.

No, we would have. The Habs play the winner of COL/VEG.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Just think: Habs could have been eliminated by us in 5, and now, despite the late start in the North division playoffs, they get to rest before the 3rd round.

Unbelievable!

Colorado/Vegas.

Boston/NY get winner of Carolina/Tampa

For this one year, there are no conferences

Vegas Colorado.

If we made it we would have played the winner of Tampa Carolina.

Bergevin sold his soul to the devil during game 5 OT intermission. How else do you explain this madness?!

 

[3blizzard4]

The top three picks in the 2016 draft

Matthews
Laine
PLD

 

[c9777666]

Bergevin as dumb as he has been is better than Dumbas.

He basically has loaded up on old guys. Outside of 3 guys, the rest of his team is mainly in their 30s

Turning out to be a bust draft. Especially when you factor in the playoffs.

Unbelievable!

Rust is worse than rest is good in the playoffs. The last 6 times now that a 4-0 team met a 4-3 team, the 4-3 team won, sometimes in a sweep.

Habs are facing the winner of Avs-Vegas, a series that will probably go 7. I think the winner of that series (likely Vegas) will have almost a free ride to the finals.

Watching the Avs/Vegas series or the Boston Series or the Tampa Series vs this series...it's like they were playing different sports. So much more intensity, speed and aggression compared to the North.

 

[c9777666]

This Canadiens team was 18th out of 31. worst record of any playoff team. Coldest team down the stretch.

Why even bother watching any regular season games any more? It's a waste of time because playoff randomness.

This Habs team is so poorly constructed

 

[Azazel]

that’s what you guys said since round 1 game #1

stop embarrassing yourselves

We apparently live rent-free right between this guys ears.

Your team just made it to the final 4 and you’re on the Leafs board?? LMFAO.

He added Toffoli, Edmondson, Allen, Anderson, Perry, Romanov last summer. No bad for a dummy.

Lol who's first thought when they win a big round is to go check a third party team's out of town thread?

Yep, they played a rusty Jets team that had nuthin' and lost it's #1 centre at the end of the 1st game.

Exactly!!!

I know that I am living in fantasy land because I just want 1 series win with this f***ing team never mind a trip to the final 4. But, if by some miracle the Leafs 1 day make it that far, The last thing on my mind would be going to the Habs board. LMFAO.

 

[Jmo89]

Montreal's last win of the playoffs.

Nah, Montreal actually has some fight and real competitors, even with a quarter of the talent (outside Price). Not the sad sacks currently wearing the maple leaf. A bit of perseverance and fortitude go a long way.

I hope this sweep stings even more for Marner/Matthews/Rielly/Keefe etc. Most knew Winnipeg would be an easy out. Yet even they managed to win a round.

Leafs and Oilers continue to be the biggest jokes of the league.

That makes sense logically, but I'll believe it when I see it.
