Division lead won't make any difference anymore if they get to round 3, right? At that point, doesn't matter if it's Washington, Pittsburgh, or Columbus, they all have better records, and division leaders no longer get seeded first, right?

 

I think Division winner still matters. 

 

I think the Habs would be the #2 seed to only Washington (if standings hold).

That game was a nice rebuttal to the crude view that lots of goals = more excitement. It's not about goal totals, it's about plays off the rush, speed, and intensity.

 

It was also a slightly scary game in that Markov, Radu, and Emelin all looked as though they might get injured. We're really healthy right now, and need to stay that way as the playoffs beckon. Fortunately all three of those guys cams back and played well.

 

No question who the better team was tonight. Good to see.

Puck drop is at 7 on City and TVA Sports.  If the Habs lose, you know which poster to blame... :)

Basically about what Price's save percentage will be in the matchup

If Kreider injures Price again I want someone to go Bertuzzi on his ass.

Great game last night. Vassy is the only reason it wasn't a 5 or 6 to 1 game. I was worried the guys would relax and not give their full effort, but nope they gave it their all and Price was the master s normal. They need tp play with that intensity every game in the playoffs, then they may have a real shot at going deep.:habslogo:

You're off the hook since they won.  Still, you can take tomorrow's GDT to try to keep your streak going.

Yup

99.6% chance of Habs-Rangers per Sportsclubstats.
