Habs have greased their way into the playoffs lol. Won a lot of games they maybe shouldn’t haveSix out of the last ten Caps games have been losses by three or more goals. I'm bewildered that Caps in 5 is winning the poll.
maybe, but not as deepThey're more talented than they were in 2010.
Not true at all.maybe, but not as deep
We were talking about the habs or at least i wasNot true at all.
Our top D was Tom Poti and Shaone Morrisonn…
Anderson is fine against any line. He won't produce but won't be a liability.I like Anderson and Xhekaj, but if you are consistently matching them up against Wilson's line, this will be a very short series.
lazy narrativeMontreal is the 7th biggest team in the NHL, why do people keep saying this?
They were talking about the Habs but Mike Green ?? Or was he a forward :pNot true at all.

Caps and Habs fans usually like eachother so there won't be much battles in here before puck drop but I expect that to change once the series starts , I think its gonna be a very physical one with maybe a few fights game 1 to set the toneFrank and Boub active in the thread, you know trouble is around the corner
Caps have had nothing to play for outside of Ovi's record for a while now, plus Thompson and Protas have been out. If those guys are back for game 1 they will be a much more dangerous team.Six out of the last ten Caps games have been losses by three or more goals.

Less talented than in 2010 at the position that won them that seriesThey're more talented than they were in 2010.
The trade off is decent though. Obviously good goaltending is a great asset, but the 2010 team had to solely rely on halak to keep them in games. Montembault is going to hopefully get better goal supportLess talented than in 2010 at the position that won them that series
Philosophically in a roster building sense yes. In terms of winning a single series I would trade their entire top line for a 2010 Halak vs Washington performance. I still don't think people understand what an all-time playoff performance that was -- to the point that I don't think comparisons to 2010 are useful.The trade off is decent though.
