The Montreal Canadiens are falling further and further down the standings every week. The playoffs have become a scenario that would require them to win three out of four games for the rest of the year and then get some help from teams that are currently in front of them.
A team dropping to 13th in its conference is usually a pretty big red flag that changes are necessary. The Canadiens haven’t escaped finger pointing at blame being thrown at their general manager for building a poor roster that has them far from the playoff race with just under half of their calendar left to be played.
