It may not be the perfect time to have a shaky stretch, but the Habs managed to survive a first round scare vs Boston, and split a pair with their second round opponent in Philadelphia.

Two weeks ago, hardly anyone would have seen this coming, but the Habs now find themselves in a win or go home situation on Monday night.

There were some bumps along the way, but the Habs managed to win 2 of 3 this week against the Bruins and have the 2-1 series lead going into Tuesday’s Game 4.

To say “Mission Accomplished” may be an understatement for the Habs, as they now head into the playoffs as the Eastern Conference’s top seed.

The week that was for the Habs could essentially be summed up as follows – “sweep”, and no, I don’t mean the curling variety.

The Habs, despite a pair of less than impressive efforts this week, continue to be in the hunt for top seed in the East.

It was a week marked with inconsistency for both the Habs and Bulldogs. Fortunately for Montreal, they were able to steal a pair of games, however, Hamilton was not as successful, losing a pair to division rival Manitoba.

The Habs, despite being sellers at the deadline, have pushed their way to 1st in the conference with 6 weeks to go in the season.

With the trade deadline almost here, it’s time to look at some of the players that may be in play for the Habs.
