Ok, I had to take a look and I concede that FLA has a better D than MTL. specially for the bottom 3 Ds. But the Habs have a better than average defense compared to the league this season. With all the UFAs in the Habs roster and the available Cap room this summer, I am in a wait and see before panicking for next season

That is interesting, but I do not know how he would perform on a cycling, downlow line. I think playing LW with Danault and Gallagher would give him more scoring possibilites -

like Patches, he needs a center he has chemistry with: his Desharnais It is not Kotkaniemi or Suzuki. I wonder if Danault may be it. -

Yes, and to be honest he seems to be playing like bad-Patches right now : lots of body checks away from the play since he does not have the puck and no shots from near the crease / blue paint he has had a couple of rushes and attempts to drive the net but TBL’s top three have steered him away He has been in effective for. While now -

Anderson is playing like the player Columbus got rid off. Hot and Cold, and playing like a 4th liner when cold. I love him when he is on a streak, but may turn out to be our new Pacioretty -
yes I am a happy fan. The Habs beat all expectations and made it to the final. They are being beaten by a much better team, which is not a surprise, but the key players that I care about are giving it all their effort. I am specially happy with the way Suzuki, Caufield and Kotkaniemi are playing. They are performing quite well against the best team in the NHL. As for the rest... I am not disapointed because I do "set the bar really low" and do not expect much from Staal, Merrill, Gustafson, Lehkonen, Armia, Byron. They are good NHL fillers and I do not care much on how they play at this level, they are overmatched
