Going into the post-season, I wrote an article about how we would finally see — for better or for worse — what this Montreal Canadiens team really was. As it turns out, for them to really show what was possible, they needed their backs against the wall.
After winning their first game of the post-season, they then lost three straight games to fall behind the Toronto Maple Leafs three games to one. After their win in Game 2 against the Winnipeg Jets, they have now won five straight games.
