[@o0_VanYsH_0o]

I may be a Canucks fan, but that Habs game last night with us was AMAZING. I'll cheer for any Canadian team, the cup drought being broken is more important to me, but good one for the Habs. We'll get better for sure, I just hope to god Demko isn't too hurt.

Bettman made it so only one Canadian team gets to the third round, uphill battle odds always against us.

[@JCheesie]

Same here, like, as the leafs fan, there are only two Canadian teams I wouldn’t want to break the drought. (Habs and ehhh MAYBE Ottawa although they’re starting to grow on me), really, unless it’s Montreal, I’ll cheer for any Canadian team to win the cup IF the Leafs aren’t going for it 🎩🎩🎩🎩. I HAVE FAITH IN MY LEAFS MEN IN BLUE!!! 😂😂😂)(GO LEAFS GO, GO LEAFS GO, GOOOOOO LEAFFFSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO)

[@ryanmerrett9320]

Habs fan here. That one was a lot of fun. I didn't have much confidence when the Canucks went up 3-1 but was pleasantly surprised. It has been so fun to be a Habs fan lately. Hoping for a Canadian team minus the leafs to end that drought sooner rather than later and would love if it were the Canucks.

Something on Zach Werenski that I feel needs to be mentioned here: Zach has a 15 game home point streak right now, with a ridiculous points tally of 9-21-30 and a +17 through said 15 home games. That is also the longest home point streak by an NHL defenseman since Ray Borque put up a 17 game point streak in 1992-93. Astonishingly, his numbers on the road (19 games) are 3-7-10 as a -12. Imagine how much more incredible the Jackets story could become if he can start producing anywhere near a point per game on the road.

They should be able to bounce back after the road trip ends. The rest of their schedule is one of the easiest in the league. Could be two of these teams in wild card spots. I say that Tampa passes Boston and the Bruins join this wild card race. Would be amazing if Ottawa and Montreal took both.

And the Sabres, despite being at the bottom, just beat Washington of all teams last night, and UPL has had some good showings lately (I'd know, I have him in fantasy). And only 8 points back.

There is Beaucoup de Hockey a jouer! AKA It's not over until the Titanic sinks and Celine STOPS singing! FGS ;) Besides that, I'm on board, with what you're saying and with Montreal's Heart-stopping performance last night!! Getting some to look up the old Parade route, just to see where it once went. We got to see a fantastic, if a bit sloppy game with a team who needs to stop showing how well we can pass and SHOOT THE DAMN THING, every once in a while!!

[@M2xim]

I'm not surprised at all. We lost the most games by 1 goal last year and we got Laine during the offseason who can score 40. Before his injury, him alone would've made us win a lot more games and he's not the only improvement this year. Hutson is being dominant on his first season, Carrier is a solid defenseman, our fourth line is the best in the league and now we have 2 solid goalies. If our 2nd line finally turned around and can play at the level we expected from them we're already competitive with the lineup we have right now. Next year Demigod will be in that lineup and we have more prospects who are likely to make the jump to the big league at some point or another. The rebuild is ALMOST over thanks to some stellar management and scouting. Now the big test we have is coaching. St-Louis gotta make sure these guys stick together, know what their job is and reach their full potential so we don't miss our window of opportunity in the next few years.

Ever since Lizotte has come back from injury for the Pens they’ve been hot. Thee most underrated player in the league.

[@CarbonatedTurtle]

I'll give credit where credit is due, and that goes to lots of players in the lineup. But Monty is not the reason we're winning suddenly. A few shutouts can't overshadow the fact that he's a very inconsistent 3.00 GAA and .900 SV% guy. If our scoring hadn't exploded in the past month, we'd still be in the basement of the league. The only way we have a shot at making the playoffs is if Dobes is the real deal and he ends up getting at least 50% of the starts.

[@jerrysbrain]

as a flyers fan Crosby just pulling his team up all by himself is pissing me off to no end 😂

So true, that's why we see the exact same thing in the Western Conference.... Oh wait, that's not true at all.
