I have not watched all the games, but the Montreal team has been fairly inconsistent from what I have seen.

I hope they can put it together in the playoffs, nice to see some spring hockey around here.

Yeah it's been a roller coaster but it's a fun ride nonetheless

While I felt the team was sqweaking by during the first part of the season, they seem to have turned a corner recently. They are playing much better I find. Of course, getting Poulin back helped a ton, but it seems like the trade of Vanisova for Boulier was a good call; the offense hasn't dried up and the defense is much more stable.

They may have lost games to Toronto, but they were never dominated, unlike earlier in the season (even in some of their victories). Also (finally!), the PP is clicking. Poulin has moved down to the circles (finally!) and they moved Stacey to the point... she has quite a surprising shot, that was a good call!

I'd say I'm feeling good they reach the finals. Winning it, that's another story (especially with their record against Toronto), but unlike at the mid-way point of the season, I don't feel they are getting by by being lucky, but actually by being good.
