This is the last post where we look at the teams in the North division dispassionately. And yet, the truth is I’m sick of the damn Habs and the season hasn’t even started yet. Ten games. Ten. I’m not sure there will be that much dispassion.
Montreal’s 2020
Last season, Montreal squeaked into the play-in round by virtue of having the Buffalo Sabres as their competition for the last play-in spot. They played the Penguins and beat them, and I can’t complain about that because that led directly to the Maple Leafs ending up with a 15th overall pick, so thanks, I guess.
