Truth is out there, and the Montreal Canadiens will probably not be in the this year’s Stanely Cup Playoffs. There were a lot of factors that played a part in this, but a poor start and hole-filled roster will do that to any team. The Habs should have their eyes set on the upcoming Trade Deadline and eventual draft in June, but there is still hope for the Laval Rocket.
Laval had a decent start to their inaugural season going 5-3-2 in their first ten games. However, November and December had them lose more games than they’d win while picking up points whenever it would take overtime or a shootout to settle things.
