This takes the pressure off San Jose. There's no way the Sharks can choke this badly.

Sweet! Way to go Montreal!!!

You're next Penguins!

I'd like to toast former Penguin Hal Gill, who was virtually a second goalie in this series. I think he blocked more shots than the entire Washington roster.

what a game! Habs advance and will face the Pens and Flyers are up against the Broons.

The last three games have all been dominated by Washington, but Montreal wins them all. That's what a hot goalie can do for a team.

After what Halak pulled off in this series, I would count on Price playing for another team next season.

So, the aftermath of the 1st round is reciprocal:
West = Seeds 1, 2, 3 and 5
East = Seeds 4, 6, 7 and 8

Does it mean anything - who knows? But, it is interesting.

I'm an incredibly happy person tonight... If only they had won a game toward the end of the season, they wouldn't be facing the Pens now.

Holy crap montreal did the impossible!!!

Hahahaha this is awesome no more Washington!

damnn. never thought montreal could do it, i gotta pay more attention to the eastern teams! hopefully they'll ride the hot goalie and give the punjuins a good match;;

this really sucks for OV though, bad performance at Vancouver, snubbed on the hart and rocket, and now this.
