You don`t follow hockey in Texas 
that`s ok, Montreal just beat Pittsburgh in the playoffs. After beating Washington in the first round, they were far from being the favorite team.

That's what happens to teams that under estimate their opponents. I thought Cindy did a lot of whining in that series.
Being from Mtl originally I never thought they had a chance this year. But there is definitely a lot of fight in that dog LOL.

Gotta give it up to the Habs... they beat the regular-season, scoring champs in round 1... and the defending, Stanley Cup champs in round 2... and they seemed to do it all with class and style...
Seriously, along with their spirit and talent, I think their biggest asset was being an 8th seed... I can tell you with certainty they were underestimated by the Pens and their fans...
And TBH, I have no problem tipping my hat to the Habs and I'll be rooting for them to win the Cup!
So, with a touch of sadness for my Pens, I have to say...
GO HABS!!
Besides, the thought of either Boston or Philly representing the East in the final makes me frikking ill...

I just felt a bit sorry for my brother in law from Vancouver yesterday
was sad to see them go........
Thank you very much for your comments and candour, extremely classy
Being from Cole Harbour, Sidney's home town where I watched him grow up and play, Pittsburgh was a team to root for when my Habs where not involved. But Sidney showed me a side of him that I didn't know existed. I hope it was all out of frustration and just part of the game, time will tell I guess.
Wow...really? I think it's awesome that the Flyers came back from 0-3 to 3-3 to force game 7. I'd say more, but whatever....GO FLYERS.
I kind of wish Boston wins because Montreal seem to have an easier time against them but I'm impressed by the Flyers come-back in this round. Anyway, glad to see my team still alive at this time of the year for a change, its been a while since Montreal had success in the playoffs.
My second favourite team after the Habs have been the Bruins, since I was a kid. I would prefer to see Boston win, because the Flyers have gained momentum, not something I wish to see as an oponent. However, in retrospect it would be nice to see the Habs sweep the Flyers in 4 like the Flyers did against the Habs 2 years ago. That being said, regardless who plays them it is going to be a good series.
Chicago/Ducks---- Ducks in 5-6

The only opponent that frustrated the Pens more than Montreal did in that series was the NJ Devils... but we didn't see them in the playoffs, so I'm sure Montreal frustrated the whole team much more...
And being somewhat new to hockey, I'm happy to report I completed my first, full season of fan-ness! I listened to or watched every game this year... but I have to admit... the humility of the players and the frenetic pace of playoff hockey really sucked me in... oh, and the classiness of the Pens organization.
We'll get you next year, Habs!
