We've spent most of these playoffs going against must-win situations. This one we are embracing. The Canadiens return to Carey Price in the net who has been inconsistent but who has posted two playoff shutouts. In post-all star play, favorites off 3+ straight losses hit at a 70% clip and the Canadiens are 14-5 this season off a road loss. This is a must-win home game for a team that has the talent to do it. We'll take Montreal to stave off elimination.
