1. It’s playoff time in Montreal!
Forget everything you have seen since October, because all those 82 previous games did was determine who gets to keep playing hockey, and Montreal is one of those teams. There is definitely something special about playoff time in Montreal, as the city begins to emerge from a long winter and springs to life with a renewed vibrancy and hope. Legend still speaks of those great dynasties of the past and how it galvanized the entire population behind a single goal of pushing the Canadiens all the way to the Stanley Cup that it is so vociferously hungry for.
