Montreal Canadiens: Team Tank has won the Second-Half War
It’s official. The Montreal Canadiens are out of playoff contention and with another nine games to go, the draft lottery is in the minds of many fans.
Let’s turn back the clocks and the calendars to September of 2017. The Montreal Canadiens, as well as the other 30 teams in the NHL, were getting ready for the preseason to start the year off. However, loss after loss came for the Habs as they went without a win in their first six games. To make matters worse, the team struggled to put up goals getting outscored 25-9 in that time frame.
