P-Stone and Derek are still tied for the lead. You boys had better put some distance between yourselves. I don't want to have to make a ruling on the tie-breaker. (Most players from Cup winner, after that, most players in the finals, after that, team with most goals overall, after that, the player with most goals overall, after that, a coin flip)

I've got lots of opinions about why the Habs suck so much; we'll see if I feel like posting them or if anyone really cares. (Bob Gainey sure as hell doesn't, that's for sure.)

Montreal 1 - Philadelphia 3
Pittsburgh 3 - New York 0
Detroit 3 - Colorado 0
San Jose 1 - Dallas 3

Montreal looked absolutely awful last night. A completely different team than what the Bruins faced in round 1. If I was a Habs fan, I would be extremely disappointed in my team right now...

I think Bob Gainey handed the net over to Carey Price a little too early. I think he should have stuck with Huet for the playoff run, then move him in the offseason, and start Price at the beginning of the season. You NEVER know what your going to get out of a rookie goaltender in the playoffs.

Derek, you are bang-on about Price. I think the kid is the real deal--or, more accurately, that he WILL BE the real deal (if Gainey takes my advice about firing Melanson). This is why you keep veteran goaltending. Imagine what might have happened if Carbonneau had been able to play Huet last night, or in earlier games? Instead, he has TWO untested young goalies.

Bride of Kovalev described the decision to trade Huet as hubris of the worst magnitude. Roy and Dryden were one-in-a-million. To think that Montreal has some divine right to win the Cup from rookie goalies is colossally arrogant.
