About Last Night: How do you feel about the Canadiens going forward? - Montreal Gazette

Article content continued

“Montreal is a good team,” Flyers head coach Alain Vigneault said. “They’ve got great goaltending. Their top four D is almost as good as anybody in the league and their young forwards got a lot of speed. I knew it was going to be a tough battle and it was from start to finish.”

Of course, the Canadiens have some questions that need to be answered. The team has long tried to generate offence “by committee”, but a designated scorer is crucial to land. Cole Caufield could be the player down the line, but not immediately.

A reliable backup goaltender for Price has been on the Canadiens’ wish list for quite some time, and many previous options just haven’t worked out. The team needs to hit a homerun with whoever they trust next. There is work to be done and the Habs are still ways away from being taken seriously as a playoff contender (they need to beat Detroit, among other teams, a few times).

There will be negativity in the comments of this post, surely. The Habs haven’t done nearly enough yet to justify giving them any benefit of the doubt. But this postseason actually provided some positives for the Canadiens heading into next season. It’s hard not to feel good about the core that’s been put in place. But there is still room for improvement and movement.

Best of the liveblog

For the last time this season, it’s time for the best of the liveblog.

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who read all my posts this season.

I didn’t know what to expect when I was asked to fill in for Mike Boone doing the liveblog and About Last Night. I haven’t been perfect, but I’ve really been warmed by how receptive the loyal members of the Hockey Inside/Out vertical have been to me this season.
