The Montreal Canadiens are the true underdog of this tournament. They come in with zero expectations, but could surprise, especially if they meet up with the Flyers.

Coming in as the final seed in the Eastern Conference, the Montreal Canadiens aren’t expected to make much noise. Especially since they’ll be taking on the Pittsburgh Penguins. But what happens if they make it to face the Flyers?

Well, there is only one way that can happen. While the Canadiens would have to defeat the Penguins, the Flyers would essentially have to run the table in round-robin.
