xXx..CK..xXx Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 With the playoffs set to start tomorrow, I thought it would be nice to hear some of your playoff wishes prior to puck drop. I'll start us off with 10 wishes even though I'm sure I could think of more. I'm going to try to remain positive as well rather than wishing something like "so and so to remain in the press box for the entire run". My list of wishes... 1) Carey Price to remain healthy 2) Our special teams to be strong 3) Dwight King to score at least one GWG 4) The Bruins and Leafs to get eliminated Round One, followed by the Sens getting eliminated by the Habs in Round Two. 5) Lehkonen to show signs and continue what he did in the playoffs last season in the SEL. Remember, he had the most points since Daniel Alfredsson for his team. Let's hope he finds that level. 6) Win all or almost all of our overtime games 7) Pacioretty-Galchenyuk-Radulov. I'm looking for a top line of Pacioretty-Galchenyuk-Radulov to be there for us and if it's not the top line, those are the three forwards I expect to be there for us as top line players production wise. Depth players can get us through a round by scoring a huge goal but I want those players to show up for 3 of the 4, if not all 4 rounds. 8) Anaheim in the final so I can attend a game these playoffs. I'd probably even attend all the way up north in San Jose. If not, I'd like to face and defeat a Canadian team in the final, with my preference being Edmonton. 9) I wish Weber a strong playoff so he can bounce back after last year's "game 7" perception of him. 10) Let's come back full circle and wish general health to the whole team, as well as all the lucky bounces in the world for our Habs this playoff season. There's a lot of hope, and rightly so but let's try not to get too high or too low at any point until it's all said and done. At the end of the playoffs, we can come take a look at how the team did and tick off how many of our wishes came true. Perhaps there will be a connection between the two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don't think I even thought about the possibility. A lot of Habs fans seem to dread the thought but I'd be fine with it as well, as long as we win. I still prefer they lose round one though. Habs - Oil would be a great final. This has to be the most Canadian teams in the playoffs in recent memory. Not only that but seemingly talented teams. This could be the year the cup comes back up north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I want no part of a Leafs matchup, for reasons discussed in other threads. I have only one wish, and that is that Price stay healthy. I'm tired of this group being compromised by injury to their superstar, which has happened for two of the past three years. Let's see what this team can do with #31 in place. That's all I ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmethead Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 My wish is to be given the reason to have to take the 6hr drive up to Montreal in June. Oh and to pay Max a visit in New Caanan CT this summer, kids in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhfarber Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Only one wish that matters, that I get to bring my son to Montreal in June to watch the cup parade along Ste. Catherine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Price (no relation) Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Most oddsmakers are putting Montreal 4th most likely to win the cup, at 8% (well above the mean at 6.25%). You'd think the least likely would be Toronto, with them having to get past Washington and either Pittsburgh or Columbus, but they're only second last at 4%. The Rangers actually have the lowest odds, at 3%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine of Loving Grace Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Chuck and Gally have good postseasons. Beaulieu brings something. The team doesn't rely on the bottom six for scoring. Price stays healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
