Mtl take the lead 3-2 and the Islanders force the Lightning to get a 7th game.

Les Habs trying to be like the 1991 North Stars in being the least likely team to get out of their conference to the finals.

Chris

Or more like the 1971 Habs when not lots of people expected to see them in the finals. Most people back then expected the Boston Bruins winning that year.

First Stanley Cup Finals appearance for the Canadiens since 1993, which is also the last time a team from north of the border won the whole thing. Is lightning going to strike twice 28 years later? (Yes, I know Tampa Bay is still alive, but the question had nothing to do with them, LOL)

I can't believe that Montreal made it to the finals.

Same for me, it's like we got a miracle on ice.

Btw, there's still one guy who's still angry then the Leafs loss to the Habs.  I still have a guilty pleasure to see these Downfall parody clips. ^^;

We shall find out starting tonight at 8 ET/7 CT, when the last Stanley Cup Final to be broadcast on NBC and NBCSN kicks off with Game 1.

I'm going with Tampa as well, though I'd also like to see Montreal break the 28-year Cup drought for its home country of Canada.

I'm actually surprised that the Habs managed to go to the Stanley Cup final, but knowing the team, I wouldn't be surprised if they choked and lost in the final. That said, I'm rooting for them.

I can confirm that the Jacksonville Icemen will become an affiliate of the Rangers via the Wolf Pack. This will become in effect next season.

This blog post about the finals are in French, a short summary, is the current mayor of Tampa wish then the Bolts lost Monday game so they could win the 5th game at home. But some of the fans aren't happy about that idea.

Well, the mayor got part of her wish. The Habs pulled out an overtime win last night, so they live to fight another day.

If the Habs win the series the mayor is getting thrown into Tampa Bay.

Yeah, I begin to wonder if she might have jinxed or cursed the Lightning once the Habs win game 5?

I checked end of season standing and was shocked. Montreal finished 24-21-11, which in "a loss is a loss!" terms is 24-32, or .429.

You might have to go back to 1937-1938 for a worse record, where the Chicago Black Hawks (14-25-9, .385) won the whole thing.

Same. I might be a Habs fan, but considering how the team hasn't went to the Stanley Cup finals in a quarter of a century and the fact that they're one game from losing, I can't be too optimistic.

Tampa is the new Boston. Won the Stanley Cup twice, the Super Bowl, and the American League in the last 365 days.

I feel like that ending was a bit anti-climatic.
