There’s a lot of negativity and pessimism surrounding the Montreal Canadiens. Some have said, “That blue-line doesn’t strike any fear”, or even, “They have failed to address their goal-scoring problem”. A more popular one has been the comparison of the Habs’ line-up to swiss cheese.
No it’s that they taste like swiss cheese, or smell like swiss cheese, it’s that it’s actually swiss cheese. Imagine a piece, besides being yellow it’s also filled with holes. Accurate? I don’t think so.
The Montreal Canadiens are close to having the three-piece combinations that all Stanley Cup contenders need.
