The Canadiens obviously need to have a better start if they want to be in this game. Seriously, they need to be focused from the very start of the game. I can't count the number of times they come out flat and are down by 2 or 3 before the first is half done. The confidence level they are showing in front of Theodore is not encouraging.
Anyways, I am always hopeful and therefore predict that Theodore makes a couple of key saves early which instills the confidence of the players in front of him and they pull out a 4-2 victory.
We're all waiting for this ship to get turned around - here's hoping tonight is the night.
Well, my prediction for this road trip was that the Habs would lose the 2 in Western Canada, then reel off the next 4 against Eastern Conference opponents. I'm gonna stick to my prediction:
Habs over Canes 4-3
Habs over Flyers 4-2
Habs over Sens 3-2
Habs over Leafs 5-2
Subsequently, hundreds of thousands of Hab fans perish trying to jump back onto the bandwagon, but missing, and landing on the sharp, pointy rocks below.
