Welp, if you’re hoping for a shot at Alexis Lafrenière, the Habs have dealt your hopes a blow by taking an unexpected 2-1 series lead in their best-of-5 series against the Penguins.  But what Zach really wants to know is: is this the playoffs or not?!

Carey Price was his very best self but the rest of the Habs were mostly just their old regular selves, which means this series is even at 1-1 now. Kotkaniemi keeps pace with Sidney Crosby in the goals race and the Canadiens continued to struggle to stay out of the penalty box. Mostly Zach’s just irritated with the NHL on this one.
