Canadiens Have That Winning Feeling

from Red Fisher of the Montreal Gazette,
Common sense dictates that the Penguins still remain favourites to move on with two of the three remaining games in Pittsburgh. The Canadiens know it, but playing away from home hasn’t been a problem for them, as they demonstrated by winning three of four in Washington.
That was then and this is now. Still, is their success on the road why the Canadiens were celebrating so long and hard after Thursday’s surprising win?
Have they now reached the point where they are certain in their own minds they will be celebrating twice more in this series - and beyond?

Montreal has been very defensively minded and offensively opportunistic. That simple strategy might just be enough to send Pittsburgh out of the playoffs. I don’t hope so for Pittsburgh or hockey, but it’s a real possibility.

That last goal the habs scored against the pens was weird in many ways… I think the pens have 4 players from the Montreal area. MAF, Talbot, Letang, and Dupuis.
Talbot shoots the puck and has it blocked, montreal takes it down the ice, throws it in the middle, it hits letang, and maf looks at it in slow motion.
