Hopefully you are right and we can hang with them. And yes, it would help if Carlson had a clue. It just blows my mind that they keep giving him the PP and PK and all those minutes. He has just been beyond awful and Carbs has to see that - I just don't get it.

Carlson has sucked for years. That was somewhat mitigated by his offense in the past but that has slackened while his defense is even worse if that's possible. Yet, he's out there for PP, PK and OT like clockwork. Maybe he'll retire when Ovie does. We can hope.

I believe we will overcome Montreal, but I don't see us getting through the next round. We could beat Carolina, but they have beaten us up pretty badly earlier this year, and they have turned it up into playoff gear (which we have not). We have glaring weaknesses on D, and Carolina is so tough to score on. I did see Anderson went down for them last night, which is big considering how well he has played, but who knows if it's serious.
No...I'm not counting any chickens, just my observation.
(besides, we are gonna absolutely stomp Montreal on Wednesday)

Anyone watching the "condensed game" or Recap of the game will be disappointed that they don't include this hit by Tom Wilson. (which is dumb since it leads DIRECTLY to a score.)
but here it is...
Watch this with the sound on and tell me...the scream just before Tom destroys the guy...was that the other Dman warning of the impending doom?
FFS Tom...hit him hard next time. :raspberry: OUCH.
I am a little surprised we didn't here any BS or whining about a hit to the head or some other nonsense about this perfectly timed and legal hit.

Habs fans have been complaining the entire series about how one sided the officiating has been. Bad calls have gone both ways, but the majority have gone against the Caps.
