Yes, also the pressure is all on Vegas. At this point we are playing with the house's money. Nobody expects success from Montreal as all the talk is about an anticipated finals between Tampa and Vegas. But neither did the pundits in the first two series. If we stick to the winning formula: structured play, tight physical defence, opportunistic scoring and Price outplays Fleury, this could become interesting.It's funny how these "analysts" try to predict sweeps when literally the only two sweeps that have happened in the playoffs so far were the least unpredictable things ever.
Picking a team not to win a single game is serious disrespect. Some Tim Kavanaugh clown for ESPN has literally picked the Habs to get swept in both the Leafs and Jets series.
The Wild took these guys the distance at the beginning of the playoffs when everyone was rested and rearing to go. We'll make it a series, no matter the outcome.
GHG.
You cant have a 4pm weekday start in Vegas. TV dictates 5pm minimum.8pm starts in Montreal?
Come to ensure the jinx on Vegas.So why are Knights fans on our board ?
That is the beauty of sports: the ultimate in non-fiction.I've been completely wrong about this team since before the playoffs, so who the hell knows?

So like Leafs and Jets fans were.To give fake praise, wishing us but not wishing us good luck. Scout our board to tell theirs that we are obnoxious, over confident and deluded.
Maybe. But I see Pietrangelo , like most of the Vegas defence, vulnerable to a strong forecheck. The Vegas defence largely mirrors Montreal's. Only Montreal has Petry, who is far more mobile than any Vegas defenceman. If Petry is ready to go, the teams' respective defences are, as they say in Vegas: a push. Price should be better than Fleury. The biggest difference is forwards where Vegas has, in my opinion, a clear edge. But in a seven game series, it takes only one player to step up and bridge that gap. On paper Vegas has the edge, but a Montreal victory will not be as big an upset as many would have you believe. Tampa, however, would be another story. But let's focus on Vegas, and see if we can continue this great ride.Pietrangelo best dman in the NHL.
Patch vs Suz narrative is gonna be fun, hopefully Patch isn't "inspired" by anything.

You obviously never watched Andre 'red light' Racicot play.Let's go Habs! The only thing that scares me is the "french" goalie in the Bell Center playing ridiculously good....seems to always happen.
Ya don't need him to pull a Leclair!!It's rare, but our C depth is better on paper in this matchup. Will be curious to see how that affect things as we always blabber about how important C's are.

Max Pacioretty is maybe the most uninspired player in the entire NHL LMFAOIt's rare, but our C depth is better on paper in this matchup. Will be curious to see how that affect things as we always blabber about how important C's are.
