<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seb</b></div><div>Me too, but everyone except Brendan Gallagher, Antti Niemi and Jeff Petry has underperformed in Montreal and they usually rebound well after a poor season. The proof: they never had two consecutive playoff exits since 2001. And while the departure of Alex Galchenyuk hurts, they changed they entire coaching staff of the Laval Rocket and they have one of the best benches in the entire nhl with Ducharme and Richardson in the mix with Julien, Muller and Waite. Plus, Antti Niemi has rebounded in Montreal and is their best backup goalie they have had in a while. I like to go outside the norms for playoff predictions. Never go with what everyone says. Plus, they don't make the same mistakes as Detroit</div></div>

While anything can happen, this is quite the biased opinion that Montreal makes the playoffs. Weber is out until December, their best natural centers are Danault and Plekanec, they have no defensive depth, the team captain is expected to be traded any day now, the list goes on and on. The only way I see them getting there is if Drouin goes for over a point per game and Price plays better than he did his MVP season. That’s not likely by any stretch

If Toronto finished ahead of Philly here, that's Montreal vs. Toronto ... that would be awesome. The thing is, i doubt the Habs make the playoffs.
