After winning Game 4 against the Winnipeg Jets 3-2 in overtime, the Montreal Canadiens are the first team to make it to the Stanley Cup semifinals.
Who would’ve thought that would be happening? Especially after they were the last team to make the playoffs a few weeks ago.
It has been a crazy ride for the underdogs. Against all odds, the Canadiens beat the Toronto Maple Leafs in seven games, and the Jets swept the Edmonton Oilers. Then came Round 2 and the Canadiens swept the Jets.
