hope some of you younger guys realize that this may not happen again for a long, long time.

enjoy the ride and leave the whine in the cellar

FINALS BABY

Truth. Caps and Blues haven't won a series since they won their cups.

How many very good regular seasons did the Habs have, only to hit the wall once the playoffs started? This was a team built for the style of play during the playoffs.

Don't think it's a coincidence that bringing in winning players like Perry, Toffoli, Edmundson, Staal, etc helped add to a winning attitude in the locker room that started when they beat the Pens last summer.

If Evan's is ready, who comes put?

Hard to mess with team chemistry. Only player who's been up and down has been Staal with all his turnovers.

 

[Kimota]

Seeing tons of fans from other teams rooting for us all over the internet and the World.

Who the Habs smoke

 

[Pickles]

It's still so hard to believe we actually made it to the finals. This is something I thought I'd never see again. This is so amazing!!

 

[Banjo Cat]

As much throughout my life despising MTL I laughed when I saw the meme on Facebook that said 'Toronto hasn't won a playoff series in 17 years.. Montreal just won 2 series in 8 days"

Now that we're here, I must say I am glad the Islanders took you guys out. Only year it would be possible for us to meet in the finals. I know there are a few people on either side who would have loved that, but its kinda like cheering for a nuclear war. The mutually assured destruction of members of both our fanbases by cardiac arrest is best avoided. Here is to the Habs and Bruins never ever meeting again in the Stanley Cup Finals.

Go Habs Go is all I can say!! I've waited 28 years to see another final, and this is a special moment to be a Habs fan. Bring the Cup home boys!!!

He also had a pretty big goal in game 5. You don't touch this lineup. All of the lines are doing well. 4th hasn't been as good as the Jets series but that line I feel like could come up bug in the finals.

You gotta love some of the hate some fans on the main board have. Apparently us making it to the finals is bad for the league and that only top seeds should win. What a bunch of baloney.

 

[Frank Drebin]

That call by Cuthbert, unreal. Goosebumps. This is amazing.

Its hilarious salt. Pay them no mind.

I think the only way is if someone is playing badly injured. Staal may not be killing it. But he did score a big goal. And his leadership helps more than it may seem, IMO. Either way. Good problems to have!

Just finished the recording. f*** yeah. Jacked to the tits

incoming trip to mtl?

no one. This is our lineup.

I'm gonna get checked for a kidney stone tomorrow for all the salt i've licked on the main boards tonight.

The red suit continues it's hot streak!

Enjoy the ride everyone, what we are witnessing is something that may not happen again for a long time.

 

[Licentia]

I'm very impressed with Bergevin. The players seem to love him right now.

 

[admiralcadillac]

devils fan sending you love. price deserves the cup.

A Devils fan would know what a superstar goalie feels like. Feels pretty good.

No one will but ideally Staal. I’d have Evans with Byron and Anderson as they would compliment each other well, speed and north-south. KK with Perry and Armia for puck possession and cycling.

But they won’t ever take out Staal.

 

[dinodebino]

@dinodebino your sacrifice is well appreciated brother!

Pleasure. But it ended tonight!

 

[SirClintonPortis]

After two periods tonight:

Stone had
0 goals
0 assists
0 shots on goal
0 shot attempts
0 hits
0 takeaways
0 blocked shots
0/1 faceoffs

If I were the Knights, I would seriously think about changing my offense a bit.

Stone's a playmaker first and Stephenson is not a finisher while Max Pac doesn't pay the price, so unless he is setting up Theo/Pietrangelo, he's not going to score much.

Plus he tends to no show as the going gets tough, like when he did very little against Pittsburgh when Ottawa was in the Finals.

You are not making big change like that with the lineup. If Evans in it means he would replace either Staal or Lekohnen or Byron. You made an one on one switch and that's it.
