IR (2 max):
I went for a Habs sweep. They're rolling, and I think Price will want to prove something because of what happened the last time these two teams meet. I've also found Lundqvist to be extremely shaky this season.

Habs in six.
I think Rangers take it in 6. Their depth at forwards and especially down the middle is scary. Montreal doesn't stand a chance with a top 3 at C of Danault,Shaw,Plekanec.
Montreal's D is suspect. Weber is slow,Markov is slow,Emelin is slow, Benn is slow.
X-Factor is Price obviously but people are acting like Lundqvist is an afterthought.

All down to the goalies for me... Montreal in 6
Experience is the teacher of all things.
I just can't get past the fact that Montreal can't put a puck in the net. Rangers forwards are scary and once they get rolling they can possibly challenge for the cup.

But who is their go to guy when they need a big goal....
