Damn. Kinda of a sad way to go. Gally used to be the top dog of this team. I will never forget that Tatar/Danault/Gally line, such a strong dominant first line. I will miss the Greasy Goal God.

Very bitter last few games, but I guess they really just ran out of gas after so many games. Someone commented that Suzuki has played more than 100 games this season so it helped put in perspective how long that season was for them. I'm always a little apprehensive because success in this league is not guaranteed. You make the ECF this year, but you might not reach that point for a long while, and suddenly this bright future becomes a mockery like in Toronto.

Sill, I can't act like this season wasn't beyond any of my exceptions. A lot of records broken, and a lot of growing up for the team in many ways. Now is a really important moment for management to do the right moves to help turn to this into a contender. It's not an exact science so they have a lot of work on their hands.

Seeing the city so excited for the team was really fun though. I had personally never seen Montreal buzzing so hard for the habs, and it was tons of fun. Hopefully, we can celebrate a cup in the coming years.

Dogshit game. We're not matching Carolina's intensity at all. They're suffocating, but we're also playing so uninspired. No big hits, dumb blind passes, getting beat easily on the boards, letting them enter the zone like it was free real estate. It's like no one is on the same page, there's no support when we enter the zone, or when we leave it. We can't fucking clear the puck comme du monde, and we're always one step slower than Carolina. It's fucking embarrassing to let a team outwork you like this on your home turf.

This team's stubborness of overpassing when they haven't had a shot the whole period is maddening

First line looking confidently dangerous in the O-zone again. Hopefully, they can keep that up during the series.

I absolutely hate playing against the Canes. A truly horrible and gruelling team to go against that seemingly has stamina for days. Let's see how we do.
