Story-

In Montreal-The Habs came home up 2-0 in the series. The pre-game news, is Chara is back in the line-up for Boston and Kostitsyn is in for the Habs.

Montreal put on a playoff home opener like no other. The pre-grame ceromony rivaled one that would be reserved for the olympics. It was epic and I almost cried. The flame being skated round the rink and the excitement of the light show and the Habs are at home up 2-0. -Who would of guessed? Only died hard habs fans.


Boston had nothing to loose. After the opening ceremony it seemed all the pressure was on Montreal to win at home. Montreal could go up 3-o in the series but instead it was Boston scoring early and went up 3-0. Montreal would score back to back goals and come within a goal but late in the 3rd Boston would score on the empty net to make it a 4-2 final.

Boston scored first, and that is so important in this series. (As in any play off game) Momentum is everything.
